Jul-30-05  gambitfan: 11. c3 ??? a blunder ! it was a good idea to push 9. h4 and then, 10. h5 to threaten g6... why not go on ??

instead of the pusillanimous text move, why not :

11. Bh6 + !! Kx h6 a nice sacrifice
12. hg + dec Kg6
13. gxh7....

Nov-24-07  rhedrich: <gambitfan> your line is interesting, every other black move leads to mate. but after 11.Bh6+ Kxh6 12.hxg6+ Kg7 13.gxh7, ...Qg5 looks forced. What would be the reply?
May-18-09  Atking: <rhedrich> I supposed <gambitfan> meaned 11.Bh6+!! KxB 12.hxg6+ Kg7 and 13.Qf7 mate. 5...d5 is interesting but I will play 6...Ne4 with.
