2.f6 is horrible, but the game is still OK with 3. Qe2. after the night is taken, white is lost.

and that is common sack if your opponent is dumb enought to play 2 f6.

here is another game 4912982 not sure how to copy and past games but f6 and then taking the knight pretty leads to forced mate.

2...f6 is Damiano's Defense. Not a good defense. 3.Nxe5 is best for White, and 3...Qe7 is the best Black can do at this point, I think. White should play 4.Nd3 and stands a little better.

Edit - Oops, I think 4.Nf3 would be better than 4.Nd3.

I like the knight back to f3 just because it does not block the d pawn there.

Agreed, although my guess it's not because of blocking the d-pawn. I think if White plays 4.Nd3, then Black can trade queens off the board, which I think takes away some of White's advantage in the position.

f6 is a terrible move, either black loses a rook, or is put into a forced mate.

actually it is not that bad... I agree that f6 is bad, but after 3....Qe2, black is Ok.

Then you have Qh5+, decisive material will be lost.

Here white nead to be a little more careful......

1e4 e5 2.Nf3 f6?! 3.Nxe5 Qe7!? 4.Qh5+ ? g6 5.Nxg6 Qxe4+ amd the N on g6 is falling with better play for black.
