Kibitzer's Corner
May-06-04  kak: why didnt anand play 9. Knightxg6?
May-06-04  suenteus po 147: Because of 9...Nf6. 10.Qh4 Rg8 with black's pawn still protected, the rook out of danger, and white's knight threatened. It works on newbies online sometimes (like me), but not against real competition who knows better.
May-07-04  kak: thanks
Aug-31-04  InspiredByMorphy: Could 15. ...b6 have saved black? Instead of Kb8 and a6 this is one move which saves the pawn and stops the threat. Blacks king doesnt appear threatened on c8 either.
Aug-31-04  ConLaMismaMano: what about 15...b6 16.Nd4 Bd7 17.e6 Be8 18.Qf8, etc?

15...b6 16.Nd4 Be4 17.Ne6, etc?

Or is 16...c5 better?

Apr-21-07  Shajmaty: 18...Nf7?? 19. Qf6 means the end for Black.
