Tim Harding has written a very nice article about the Scotch Gambit, called a Glass of Scotch, that contains annotated games.

Do you recommend any source of annotated games on the Scotch Gambit? The only Scotch Gambit game I've ever played was through the correspondence site www.schemingmind.com.

Funny thing is, recently at a monthly chess session this topic was raised. We sat a randon Knight+Bishop position over the board and none of us could solve it!! It's funny, but at our level (I am rated 1771), it is one of those mates you do need to brush up on the technique ocasionally, otherwise one forgets. In fact, I am embarrassed to admit I probably wouldn't be able to solve it at this very moment if it presented itself! : ) Cheers, Louis PS: I'll check your short Scotch Games. Does anyone know where I can find annotated games on the Scotch Gambit? It looks like an interesting opening, even if Black can easily transpose into the Two Knights or Giuco Piano.

The first installment is rather easy--mate in four--but we'll see about the next. :) I want to know this mate a little better, so I’ll follow along your series.
