Kibitzer's Corner
Dec-31-14  Knight13: I prefer 10. Ra3 over 10. c3.

18. Be1 seems just as good as 18. Bf2.

22. Qf1 is more precise. White's 22. Raa2 was a little too presumptuous that Black will play 22... gxf3? the next move, which, fortunately for him, Black did.

23. Nd5 is slightly better than 23. Rxf3. Other than that, there's no real difference in choosing 21. Nc3 over 21. Qf1.

30. Qf1 was a little redundant. 30. b5! is stronger.

32. a6 is more accurate than the text's 32. bxc6, but both are good enough to get the job done.
