  An Englishman: Good Evening: Interesting flaw after 13 moves in the database Opening Explorer. The DB lists only A Rodriguez Cespedes vs G Kuzmin, 1982, and not the current game. White played 14.Qd2 and won a good game, so perhaps in this game Schneider started to go astray with Rb1.

  perfidious: Have noticed other instances of this phenomenon when searching similar games; the feature is not all-encompassing within the database.

As to the game itself, I had several games in this line and recall losing one to Maurice Ashley in New York, 1992. My experience was that Black would play the ....d5 break without the preliminary ....Rb8.

Oct-10-21  goodevans: Lovely play by Black but surely <20.Qa4?> was tantamount to capitulation. What on earth was the Q supposed to achieve with her foray to c6?

After <20.Qb4> Black would have had the option to sacrifice with <20...Nxc5 21.Qxc5 d4> but after <22.Rd1> things would have been far from clear.

Oct-10-21  Ironmanth: What a demolition. Who doesn't dream of a game like this as Black, or alternately the horror as White?! Y'all stay safe out there, today.

  naresb: in school i learnt- advancing pawns are good for attack & bad for the defence.

add to that advanced Queen, un-castled King & weak back rank & one don't need further evaluation.
