Knighthawkmiller: Korchnoi points out that if 19...hxg5 20. Rxh5 looses the exchange and the game to 20...Ne3+ 21.fxe3 Bg4 in VK Best Games game 54. Excellent review of this complex game. |

|
Knighthawkmiller: I beleive Soltis is pointing out that small errors in the opening can be avoided by not mechanically responding in a position. The goal is to avoid an increasing number of weaknesses that add up as the game progresses. |

Sep-25-24 Benjamin vs I Krush, 2011
|
Knighthawkmiller: This game appears in Joel's book Better Thinking, Better Chess. A very instructive book with many excellent games analyzed. Myself, a B player, found great benefit in Benjamin's analysis. Lost my game with him 25 years ago, but hoping for another chance to play someday. |
