ChessDude33: <An Englishman> after 11. Qg6+ Ke7 12. Nd5 Nxd5 13. cxd5 Nb4/Na5 14. d6+ looks promising with threats of Bc4. Of course the black knight would need to be dislodged to prevent d5 by black, but that can be done via Bd2(if Nb4) or g4(if Na5). Another option for white is to ... |

Jun-29-08 Sicilian, Taimanov (Bastrikov) Variation (B47) 
|
ChessDude33: <Chlipchlop> Although I do not fully know the virtues of Qc7 over a6, I do know that it saves a tempo in lines involving Nxc6 and Bd3. Also, c7 is a very good square for the queen, eyeing down the c-file and b8-h2 diagonal. |

ChessDude33: <Gilmoy> Thanks, I've played a stonewall (what you recommended) before, and it feels weird with g6 inserted. |

|
ChessDude33: <Jfq> I see, thanks! Kinda a rough start for me, but I'll try my best to help out the team from here out. <sneaky> A king's gambit would be so cool to watch! I'm still excited from Shulman's ... |

ChessDude33: <Sneaky: "<Nxd5!! is the only move>"> Why is Qxd5 not plausible? |
