Aug-29-05		jorgegatica: What if Black just waits? and oscillates the rook between a7 and c7? Anyway, magnificent demostration of technique against a world champion!

Aug-29-05		RookFile: I think you mean 44...Rc7 instead of 45. Ra2. Hmm. Maybe white can play f3 and e4.

Aug-31-05		beatgiant: <jorgegatica, RookFile> Against the passive defense with 44...Rc7 and oscillating the rook, White can play for g5 undermining the e5 squre, followed by attacking the weak pawn structure. For example, 44...Rc7 45. h4 Ra7 (or 45...h6 46. g5 fxg5+ 47. hxg5 also looks great for White) 46. g5 fxg5+ 47. hxg5. I don't see how Black can avoid going down a second pawn in the near future.

Jan-04-08		newzild: What a beautiful minority attack by white. Textbook stuff.

Jan-04-08		Jim Bartle: That is one travellin' white queen's knight.
