Apr-29-11  jerseybob: If white castles long in a Q-side opening he better be careful(as Korchnoi learned the hard way a few times). 11.f4 is a lemon(11.Kb1 looks better),but Larsen's demonstration of why is very pleasing, capped by 20..c4!(21.Nxf2,Qb4)
May-13-11  BLarsen1967: <jerseybob> If 11.Kb1,then perhaps 11..c6 12.dxc6 bxc6 13.h3 f5 14.Bg5 Qd6 15.Bd3 and clearly Black must be better
May-30-11  jerseybob: BLarsen:I like your analysis up to 12..bxc6, but what exactly is 13.h3 supposed to accomplish? It looks like a classic do-nothing move. If white is to justify castling queenside - and I think it was dubious by the way - he's got to be more vigorous, like say with 13.Bh6 followed by h4-5. Even that may not be fast enough, but 13.h3 I just don't get.

  plang: 3 f3 was still relatively unknown at the time of this game. The line with queenside castling, however, had been played 3 times previously by Enevoldsen though he had lost all three. 14 Bg5 was new but it has not been repeated and is no improvement over 14 h3 which Enevoldsen had played once previously. 15 Bf4? was a positional error that led to the opening of the f-file for Black after 16 Bxe5?; better would have been 15 Bh6. 20 Qg3..Raf8 21 Nf3..Nxc3 22 Qxf2..Nxa2+ 23 Kb1..Nb4 would have favored Black. 20..c4! was decisive as 21 Nxf2..Qb4 22 Qd2..c3 23 bxc..Qa3+ wins for Black.

  Tabanus: This game is in Larsen books but I can't find the date, month or occasion. Perhaps a club match in December 1953.
