A successful Fried Liver attack.

  • 1. e4 e5 2. Ng1f3 Nb8c6 3. Bf1c4 Ng8f6
    Black goes for the three nights defense, which is about the only time the Fried Liver attack can be used.
    • 4. Nf3g5 d5 5. exd5
      If black wants to avoid the Fried Liver attack at this point, he can move ...Na5.
      • 5... Nf6xd5
        Iacta alea est. Black is in for it now.
        • 6. Ng5xf7
          !? The Fried Liver attack begins.
          • 6... Ke8xf7
            Not much else to do here. Black now has a superiority in material, which will only increase until black is finally checkmated.
            • 7. Qd1f3 Kf7e6
              This is black's only viable response.
              • 8. Nb1c3 Nc6b4
                Threatening to fork White's King and queen's rook. A more defensive move is ...Ne7.
                • 9. a3
                  ! Forcing black to decide now whether he's going to fork White's King and queen's rook.
                  • 9... Nb4xc2
                    This looks good for black, but is actually what white wants.
                    • 10. Ke1d1
                      White is going for a quick win and doesn't need (and can't use) the rook at a1.
