| dzechiel: Looking at the position after 28...Bf8 it seems that black will try to weaken white's queen side pawns and get the c-pawn rolling. 29 g4 made me blink. I suppose the move is playable, but it's not what I would have considered. This looks like one of those positions where the only way to lose it is to try and win it. Was white playing for a win here? If not, were there better moves to try and get the half point? |
