The Gabridoodle's Gun, or, Sometimes There's Hope

15 moves in, it's looking grim for the Gabridoodle.  Fritz is ahead by two bishops and two pawns...

...a couple of moves later, however, the Gabridoodle has assembled what we might call, with apologies to Alekhine, Gabridoodle's Gun.  Now Fritz is suddenly on the defensive...

...the Gabridoodle starts blasting away and by move 19 it's all over !  It's a miniature.  Fritz is checkmated.

A miniature start to the new year

The Gabridoodle makes no claim that this game was typical, an omen, nor a brilliancy -- but his victory over Fritz was definitely a miniature start to the new year !
