Feb-08-03		suenteus po 147: I'm not sure I understand Liutov's resignation here. Sure, he's down on material as far as the bishop is concerned, but there seems to me to be a few options that could be pursued. Why not h3 to get the ball rolling? Am I just a newbie or does someone else see a pursuable game in that?

Feb-08-03		Bears092: black just drops the rook back, and we're back where we started.

Dec-12-04		chess man: Black doesn't have to even move the rook with h3 <Bears 092> for he can't capture the rook because of the discovered check. the h pawn is pinned! And even moving the rook it doesn't really matter because black is up a bishop with an easy win once he brings in his other rook and his king; then white doesn't stand a chance!
