  fredthebear: Hate to spoil the rook party, especially a Muzio Gambit, but Black made 4 consecutive questionable moves according to Stockfish: ....14?, ...15?, ...16?, ...17?

The confusion caused demonstrates why the King's Gambit is still a viable weapon face-to-face. It's easy for humans to get it wrong!
