Kibitzer's Corner
Mar-07-07  LivBlockade: It looks like White will get his pawn back and have a strong attack, so Black decides to save some stamps.
Mar-13-08  TheaN: I actually think White is pretty much unstoppable. Threatened is 22.Bxg5, but if the Queen moves out of the pin, 22.hxg5 effectively cracks open the Black King's shell of pawns: the problems definitely continued, but might have started, with 17....g5, which creates this vulnerable shell.

Black's best try might even be 21....g4 22.Bxh6 , as 21....Rae8?! 22.Bxg5 Nxg5! 23.hxg5!! and Black will lose badly. 23.Rxe7!? is a gamble if you ask me, as 23....Nxf3 would create problems.

  Domdaniel: Yeah, White is unstoppable -- and has been since maybe 15...Ne7.

Up to that point, Black was clinging on, uncomfortably. After it, he seems lost.
