    I like the way that you demonstrate that the response to a threat is multiple threats back.
    There's almost always, at my very low level, an emotional reaction to the N fork on c2. Thank you for showing me how I can exploit this.

    Finished in 14 with Qxh3#. White tried a Queen defense where a double check forced White to defend with and lose the Queen. Was a lil worried about an early Qh5+ but the wide open fried liver was too tempting for White to pass up. Good stuff!

    I played this game and won some games but in one game after Bc5 they played Bg5

    Tricky openings are valuable unless one is playing a GM.

    1st trap is useless as soon as Queen protects king lolll
