at 11:27 you move your rook to h6, there is a discovered attack on his queen by your bishop, which is also pinning it against the king: he is forced to take it, and you win - you mate on the next move - i think you had a simple mate in 2 - anything wrong with this?

Nice tactic! And I also learnt the technical difference between deflection and decoy which I had always wondered about too.

Does this double pronged bishop attack versus castled king have a name in the books? Thanks

you had it totally won at 11:27 your rook to h6 with the pin on the g pawn, your bishop attacks his queen, if he takes, you mate - why not that?

You intended to play a gambit, so losing that pawn wasn't a big deal, and in fact helped a lot. That's the whole point of a gambit, right?
