Kibitzer's Corner
May-31-05  ksadler: Tarrasch sacs his queen, and looks to get enough for it. After 21. .. Bd8, does White have any other options than saccing the exchange? I guess that White has to be careful not to open the f-file, but isn't a move like 22. Rf3 (just consolidating his position) better for long-range plans?
May-31-05  dac1990: 22.Rxg5+ is good enough, the real place where one must look is in 26.g3? which immediately gives Black play. Better was 26.Qxb7, where White's four pawns can prove to be quite enough for the Black Bishop to handle.
