Oct-16-08  Xeroxx: Great Benoni! ಠ_ಠ
Apr-22-09  Amarande: I'm foggy on the ending here ... Obviously 21 Qxf3 is mandatory, but 21 ... Bxg4 now seems to be countered by 22 g3, 21 ... Rf8 doesn't have the secondary threat necessary to win, and if 21 ... Qh2+ 22 Kf1 and I don't seem to see a continuation?
Apr-23-09  Shams: <Amarande> white missed it too, else he would have played 20.f3 defending.

Black wins thusly: 21.♕xf3 ♗h2+! 22.♔f1 ♗xg4 23.g3 ♕h5

Apr-23-09  ounos: 20. f3 wasn't much of a defence in view of 20. ...Bd4+
Apr-23-09  Shams: <ounos> ugh, I should look at my suggested alternatives for more than five seconds I guess.
Jul-06-13  jerseybob: 21.Qf3,Qh2+ 22.Kf1,Bd7 seems to do the job.
