Nov-27-14  Knight13: If 17. Bf4 doesn't work because of ... Nxf4 18. Rxf4 g3 19. Nf3 Be7, then what should White play in place of 17. Rf6? 17. Qd3 maybe?
Aug-09-15  pericles of athens: My silicon buddy gives the straightforward 15...g x f a dominating -4.5 score and also says 15...Nbc6 is a blunder.
May-12-19  Pyrandus: Faboulous.
