Dec-14-06 F Duz-Khotimirsky vs V Kirillov, 1949 
|
deadparrot: On d6, the knight does control e4 which is an important square. Its main purpose on d6 is to prevent the d5-passed pawn from advancing. |

Dec-13-06 Bronstein vs NN, 1950 
|
deadparrot: hm... let's see: The Nc6 is pinned, but we cannot make anything useful of that. black queen is only protected by Nf6. How could we get rid of that defending piece? Exchanging doesn't work, but we can force it into another pin with Rd8!! |
