Sep-25-12  Olavi: 20...h5, a fantastic move, whether objectively correct or not. This probably helped Korchnoi in an important game: Geller vs Korchnoi, 1971
Sep-13-17  Saniyat24: Suetin's Knight did a lot of work...loved Korchnoi's 35...Be3, Suetin's reply 36.Nf6+ was equally good...after 39...Bf2 Suetin faced two well placed Rooks and a dangerous Knight, which was too much with just his Queen and a single Rook...
Feb-28-18  Adenosina: Very interesting game! As it has already been commented before, 20 ... h5! is a great move, not easy to do from a positional point of view. Furthermore, I find very inspiring how the e3-dark-squared bishop not only does restrict White pieces, but it also threats the White King. In fact, the h5-pawn which was supposed to be a weakness end up being a strenght, weakening the White King as well.

  kingscrusher: h5 is dreaming of a later counter attack with a Knight on f5, King to g7 R to h8 and Ng3 pattern. But a better opportunity turned up later. Amazing stuff to be in the mind set of trying to mate the opponent's king with h5! Outrageous!
