Jun-14-05		nikolaas: Interesting to see how white changed his plans; First he castles to the kingside, moving his rooks to the queenside. Then he moves his king to c2n letting the rooks pass to the kingside. The black roks on the other side, didn't do much in the game.Instead of 31.Rb7 (seems useless to me) I'd prefer Kg7 with Rh8. I get the impression that Albin played far beneath his level. For example; wouldn't 35....Nxg5 36.hxg5 Rf8 be much better?
