Kibitzer's Corner
May-15-17  patzer2: White's 13. d5! created a world of hurt for Black.

Black's reply 13...exd5?, allowing 14. Nxd5 (+3.20 @ 27 depth, Komodo 10.3) only made it worse.

Instead, Black could have fought on a pawn down after 13...0-0 14. dxe6 fxe6 15. Bxe6+ Kh8 16. Rad1 (+1.08 @ 29 depth, Komodo 10.4)

May-15-17  patzer2: Black's best chance to keep it level might be ditching 6...cxd4 in favor of the popular move and computer choice 6...Nf6 as in Black's win in K Delaney vs N Zwirs, 2017.
