Dry your eyes, mate! 1834 World Chess Championship [Match 5, Game 11]

This is the eleventh game of the fifth 1834 unofficial world chess championship match between Louis-Charles Mahé de La Bourdonnais and Alexander McDonnell.

La Bourdonnais has already won this best of 11 match 6 games to 3. But the way gentlemen rolled back in the day was to play out all of the remaining games regardless, so McDonnell is playing to make the scoreline look a bit better.

We're going into an Evan's Gambit once more.

Will McDonnell be able to dry his tears in time to give La Bourdonnais a run
for his money, or is he completely down and out?
