Not if you don't mind losing in <10 moves... This "Duckstein" goes
way beyond patzer: Black wins by force with 1.f3!? e5 2.Kf2? (which is
still better than 2.g4???) Bc5+ 3.Kg3?? Qg5+ 4.Kh3 Qh5+ 5.Kg3 g5 6.h4
(the only defense against Qh4# since 6.h3 Qh4+ 7.Kh2 Bf2 and Qg3 mates)
and now simply Bxg1 remains at least a piece up: 7.Rxg1? Qxh4#, and
otherwise Black has 7. ... gxh4+ 8.Kh3 (Rxh4 Bf2+) d5+ 9.g4 hxg3++
(double discovered check by e.p. capture!) 10.Kg2 Bh2 splat.
