Why not play Ne5 already at move 8?
8. Ne5 threatening Qh5+ followed by Qf7 mate. It looks like black has to drop material to deal with this. 8. ... Ne7 9. Qh5+ Ng6 10. Nxg6 game over. 8. ... fxe5 9. Qh5+ Kf8 10. Bxd8
10. Ne5!?

First, let me say I just signed up for this site about a week ago and really like it so far. There's tons of information available here.
Below is a game I completed today, and I was curious what everyone thought. What is the best response for black following 10. Ne5. I think every line leaves white considerably ahead.
