Buxton brilliancies

I don't know if it was the spectacular Palace Hotel ballroom where the last day was played, or something in the local spa waters, but the final round of the e2e4 Buxton Open produced several brilliant games. I featured Daniel Fernandez' queen sacrifice win on Monday; here are two other notable final round efforts. In the first, White sacrifices half the Amazon rainforest, to smoke out the enemy king to its destruction. The second features a standard French Defence piece sacrifice by Black, but one which is nicely followed up, with a decisive long-term attack.
