  An Englishman: Good Evening: Well done pun on the American motion picture "Dumb and Dumber." Game itself is interesting as an example of what happens when Black does not challenge the center with ...c7-c5 on either move 6 or 7.
Jun-04-22  nalinw: Nice pun - and educational GoTD - never thought of this gambit against the French ....

Jun-04-22  goodevans: I wonder what Black had in mind with 17...c6.

As for 18...g6, why not just resign and save yourself the cost of the postage?
