Feb-16-10		Dr. Funkenstein: wow, Kamsky flattens a 2600 starting with the clever 14. ... Nxe4! White has to give back the piece because if Qf3 then f5 and if Qd3 then Nb4.

Feb-16-10		Starf1re: Nice combination by black!

Feb-16-10		Starf1re: The silicone hydra recommends 15)Q c2 for white. 16)Qe3 is losing.

Feb-17-10		Dr. Funkenstein: You (and hydra) are right Starf1re, how does black respond after Qc2?

Feb-18-10		Starf1re: After QC2, white is still in an ugly predicament after kb4 Qxe4 bf5. If you're interested in analysis Babaschess comes with Crafty chess engine and you can also download Rybka for free and select it with Babaschess to analyze.

Feb-20-10		Dr. Funkenstein: sorry, I meant 16. Qc2 where Nb4 is answered by Qc5
