Dec-07-17		Ulhumbrus: In the final position White has the stronger minor piece if the heavy pieces come off and if that gives Black a reason to avoid exchanges of heavy pieces that by itself gives White the advantage if other things are equal. Perhaps Adams expects Nakamura to succeed in defending the game.

Dec-07-17		Clement Fraud: It is a rare privilege indeed to see two modern day super GM's thrash it out in a Dragon Sicilian: The responsibility was always with black to prove that he had compensation (for his isolated queen-side pawns) following the exchange of Knights on move eleven. I was wondering if black had a better option than 25... Bd3 (since the Bishop seemed temporarily safe outside the pawn chain)?
