Jan-07-02		bishop: Nice game! A young Van Der Wiel gets a lesson. White had to try 14 Nxd5 but black was better anyway.

Jan-07-02		Sneaky: I agree, 14 Nxd5 was the lesser evil... but then White finds that the attack on a2 is troublesome (14. ... Qxd5 15. a3? Qa2) and probably will be forced to play the weakening c4. This game illustrates the hazards of playing O-O-O against the King's Indian Defense.
