Kibitzer's Corner
Nov-26-05  Resignation Trap: Black gets his Queen trapped after 21...Re7? Instead, 21...Nxf4 22.Bxf4 Rxd1! should be tried.
Dec-20-05  ForeverYoung: Schletcer points out after 24 ... f5 25 Be5+ Kh7 26 Rxe3 etc. 21 ... Nxf4 22 Bxf4 Rxd1! is indeed an equalizing line. This suggests that white could have played more effectively earlier after black was forced to weaken his position with h6 and g5. The Austrian master points out at Ng4 is white's threat after 13 Ne5!
