Dec-12-05		DAL9000: I like this game because it's one of the few GM games I can readily understand-- once White gets his pawn to d6, his entire game is oriented towards protecting it and then ramming it down Black's throat with an eye to promotion. (I also like the game because 30. g3! is very nice-- I love that kind of quiet move.) Because of this, though, I have a question. How could Black have /stopped/ that pawn from getting to d6? If he couldn't have, what could he have done to get more active play against it? I guess what I'm asking here is: where did Black go wrong?
