  plang: An offbeat anti-King's Indian line.
7..Qa5 was new; 7..Nbd7 had been played previously. If 8 Nf3 then 8..b5! is promising for Black - 9 cxb..Nxd5 10 Be4..Nxc3 11 Qd2..d5 12 Bxd5..Rd8 and Black is winning. Gulko was critical of 12..e6? recommending 12..Re8 13 e4..Qc7 with a small White advantage. fter 14 f5! the response 14..Bxf5? 15 e4 wins a piece. A pretty line would have been 15..Qb4 16 Nf5..Bxc4 17 Qxd6..Rad8 18 Ne7+..Kh8 19 Qxf6!. Chernin felt Black could have held with 15..Ne4 16 Ngxe4..fxe 17 Nxe4..f5 18 Nxd6..Qb4.
