0817: what about 17.Na3 ?
A) 17...Rfd8:
A1) 18.Bg2 Rd1!
A2) 18.f3 Rxd5 19.fxg4 Rd4 looks unclear to me.
A3) 18.Bxb7 Rab8 19.f3 Rxb7 20.fxg4 Rd4 looks better for black compared to line (A2) above. B) 17...Rad8:
B1) 18.f3 Rxd5 19.fxg4 Rd4 looks just like (A2)! :p

0817: I do not understand why some people "hate" certain super GMs, calling them names such as "Drawnik", etc. It's really immature and pretty annoying. Personality plays a part in chess, and so when you criticise a player for not playing how YOU want them to play, it's nearly almost a ... |
