i dno't like the idea of winning a pawn here, sinc eyou're giving up your light square bishop. blacks king (Castled or not) is on a light square, your light square bishop is the most useful peace you have in your attack.

you were just lucky your opponent made a mistake which leads to a checkmate, but if your opponent played correctly, he can equalize quickly. because you gave up your ligthsquare bishop to a knight + pawn.

i prefer white with 9. e6!

Ha ha nice, I love the Scoth gambit :)  It's so easy for black to trip up, just like that.
