  GrahamClayton: 8.♘c6 grabbing a pawn is too risky, as demonstrated in Mayet vs Anderssen, 1865

12...♘b7 puts the Knight on a very passive square.

Sep-04-20  tibone: 7... Qe8 was also possible (e.g. 8. d4 Bb6 9. 0-0 d6

)

May-30-23  tibone: I suggest 14. Nd8 as improvement for Black's play.
Jun-05-23  tibone: If 14...Nd8 then

a) 15. a3 (Now White can take back on b4 with the a-pawn.)

or b) 15. g3 (Now White can play h2-h4 and later Be3-g5.)

Jun-09-23  tibone: or c) 15. Nb3 (Now White threatens bxa5 and if Bxa5 then Nc5.)
Aug-25-23  tibone: Which move of this game was a novelty?
Aug-25-23  whiteshark: <tibone: <Which move of this game was a novelty?>>

<12...Nb7> vs 12...Re8 as in Smagin vs J Fleck, 2000

Aug-27-23  tibone: In Smagin vs. Fleck Black got rid of the double pawn in the c-file and even managed to double his rooks in the e-file.
Aug-27-23  tibone: I investigated the following variation:
16...Nf5 17. Nb3 Rd8 18. Qc2 Ne7 19. Rec1 Bd7 20. Bg3 h5 21. h3 Rac8 22. Nc5 Bxc5 23. Qxc5 ±
Aug-27-23  tibone: I invented the following line:
16...Nf5 17. Nb3 Rd8 18. Qc2 Ne7 19. Bg3 h5 20. h3 Bd7 21. Nc5 Bxc5 22. Qxc5 Rac8 23. Nc4 Re8 24. Ne5 Red8 25. Re2 Ng6 26. Rc1 Ne7 27. Rec2 Qf5 28. Qc3 Qh7 29. Qd2 f6 30. Nd3 Bf5 31. Rc3 Bxd3 32. Rxd3 Qf5 33. Rdc3 Qd7 34. Rc5 Re8 35. Qc3 Ra8 36. b5 cxb5 37. Rxc7 Qe6 38. Re1 Qf7 39. Qc5 Kf8 40. Bd6 +-
