My latest loss with Eric

Following is my game with Eric in Team tournament. I saced a piece for 3 pawns (another Allen Becker inspiration), had a winning position and then just played badly to lose !


Following was the position just before Nf7 sac




Following was the position just before the blunder fxg. Ne3+ wins.

Souvik, I came by your board just before you played this sac. Of course, you and I were both probably thinking of your Fricano game (with very similar sac). Well, I hoped I didn't overly influence you. It's a brave sac, and it led to a tough battle afterwards.

Allen,

The Sac was correct move. I'll play it next 10 times I will get this position !
I actually got the confidence to play moves likes these watching people like you in SWCC. Itwoorked for me in Fricano game. It should have worked here also if I could calculate it welll afterwords !
Thanks again
Souvik
