Worst Combination Ever

SUFFERED another barely believable meltdown tonight playing for Battersea at Cavendish in division one of the London League.
White to make his ninth move in Spanton (171) - Stewart Reuben (166)

9.e5!?
This bit is fine. The idea is that after …
9...dxe5
… White plays 10.Qxd8+ with good compensation for the pawn. Indeed I played this in a game last month.
But for some reason tonight I instead continued:
10.Bxf7+?? Kxf7 (0-1, 29 moves)
