Yes?

Damn, looks like a slam dunk for white.

He's down a piece.

Trying out a new gambit sacrifice. This will either work, assuming I estimated the moves correctly, or I will have to resign. LOL! Give me a bit. I have to do something. Got a tech issue with board on line.

Your pieces are not developed very well.

Many years ago, I played chess. But I haven't in decades.

My son invited me to play him a few weeks ago.

And he wiped me off the board!

It is, but I screwed up the sequence after the knight sacrifice. I know what I did wrong, but too late.

Resign. Good game. We'll have to play again sometime. I obviously messed up the opening.

If your better development is worth a piece, you didn't screw up.

If you want to go back to an earlier move, let me know.

I haven't played for years either until a few days ago. Couldn't get any real competition on the cite I was on. Then I tried a gambit-sacrifice opening here and screwed it up. Should have stuck with a more conventional opening. I got too fancy for my britches.
