A few games from the Monthly blitz tourney.

Here a game with a trick in the Scandinavian defense I wanted to share.

In the Qd6 and Qa5 line, the idea of Bxf7+ is a rather well know opening trap, winning for black. Note that in the Qd8 line however, the Bxf7+ idea is fine for white. I liked the tactics towards the end of the game.

And here a game with an optimistic queen sac, where I was lucky in the end (though overlooking a checkmate idea at first) :

All in all I didn't play very well, ending at 5th place, but I was lucky to give the nr.1 the only loss, though in a mediocre game (The FM, at 1st place, won all other games !! Congrats.).
