IM Gary Lane vs Smith-Morra fanatic

1 year ago this week, I had the pleasure of playing IM Gary Lane in a simul shortly after he won the 2005 Oceania Zonal.. here is what happened:

[Event "Simul 2005"]
[Date "2005.02.07"]
[White "IM Lane, Gary"]
[Black "Smith Morra fanatic"]

1. e4 g6 2. d4 Bg7 3. Nc3 d6 4. Be3 Nc6 5. Qd2 e5 6. Nge2 f5
7. exf5 gxf5 8. Bg5 Nf6 9. O-O-O Bd7?! 10. dxe5 dxe5 11. Ng3 Ne7?! 12. Bc4 c6

Fritz: white is +4.03 already

13. Rhe1 Qc7 14. Qd6 Qxd6 15. Rxd6 Ng4 16. Nh5 Bf8

Fritz: + 2.53

17. Nf6+ Nxf6 18. Bxf6 Ng6!?

After some pretty poor play by myself I am getting smashed in the centre ... and now Lane goes in for the kill, and after all he *is* the IM and I am the fish .. so he doesnt need to work out the mate, all he has to do is push me about some more and the mate will come

19. Rxd7 ?? ... or will it? :)

19. ... Kxd7 20. Bxh8 Bh6+ ! Fritz says: -0.12 .. black is ahead! I had seen this possibility before playing 18. ... Ng6

21. Kb1 Rxh8 22. f3 Rd8 23. a4 Bd2 24. Rd1 Ke7 25. Ne2
Ba5 26. Rf1 Rf8 27. c3 Bc7 28. Ng3 Nf4

Fritz: -1.20, thats a pawn up vs an IM!
