  InspiredByMorphy: How dissapointing. Black clearly should win being 3 pawns up in the endgame and gos insane from move 38 on! Had he played 38.Kg5 what would white have done?
Apr-20-04   Phoenix: 38...Kg5 39.Ne4+ nabs a rook.

  whiteshark: <YOUR engine will hate it !!!! <<<>>>>

After <7...e4> white can go for the Rsac [German: Rucksack] <8.0-0 Qf6 9.Bxe4! Qxa1>

anyhow, here is the mainline:

<10.Qb3 Qf6 11.Re1 Be7 12.axb4 Qf4 13.Bb2 Kf8 14.Nc3>

White has sacrified a Rook, but the development fully compensates this !!!
