Even in a long game there may be some good compensation for the piece, but e4! is the acid test. See if you can find good lines for White after 15..e4! 15.Nf5 drives CM9K normal settings crazy!:o) Terry P.S. Yes Black played Bf8?! and lost...but we both made some poor moves. Heck it is G/2 and it's not my forte but you get to try ideas, good and bad and somewhere in the middle.
