Are my eyes that bad? I don't see any difference ;) Do you mean between the 2 winning lines? The main line wins very decisively in all variation (Black cannot decline the sacrifice without being wiped out), whereas the secondary line gives White a smaller advantage if Black plays well, e.g.: 1.Nhxf5 cxb3 2.Qe4 Nc5 3.Nxe7 Nxe4 4.Nxc8 Nxd2 5.Nxd6 Nxf1 6.Nxf1 Bxf1 7.Bxf1 bxa2 8.Bc4 > >> >>1.Nxg6! >> >> [1.Nhxf5 cxb3 2.Qe4 also wins] >> >>1...Kxg6 2.Nxf5!
