Mar-24-13		thomastonk: 16.La4!? is an interesting pawn sac, but hard to say, whether it has been intended. Maybe White has possibly no complete compensation, but thereafter his position is quite easy to play. Tarrasch's 23.. h5?? is the decisive mistake. 23.. e8 looks okay, say 24.g5 hxg5 25.hxg5 d7 26.xf7+ d8 and the game is about equal.
