Subject: Traxler Gambit

Message:
I hope there are someone who knows enough about it.After these moves:


1 e4 e5
2 Nf3 Nc6
3 Fc4 Nf6
4 Ag5 Fc5
5 Axf7 Fxf2
6 Kxf2 Axe4+
7 Ke3 Qh4

Black has a great positional advantage and there are combinations that takes you to the victory.For example;

8.Nxh8 Qf4+
9.Ke2 Qf2+
10.Kd3 Ab4+
11.Kxe4 Qf4#


But if white plays 6.Kf1 instead of capturing the bishop,black's both rook and queen are under the attack.So,black loses his rook.And after this,how must black play to have a chance to have a positional advantage or take a piece?

I thought about of it but couldnt solve the problem.I hope there are someone who can help me here.

After 6.Kf1 Qe7 7.Nxh8 d5 8.exd5 Nd4, Black has reasonable attacking chances.
