Kibitzer's Corner
Mar-03-05   Kingsandsquares: Vienna...
Jun-18-05   trumbull0042: "1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Nf6 4. Nc3 Bb4 5. d3 d5 6. exd5 Nxd5 7. O-O Bxc3 8. bxc3" Why not 8...Nxc3? That is not one of the two options for black's 8th move in the opening explorer.
Jul-31-05   cuendillar: Probably because of 9.Qe1 gaining a centre pawn for the doubled c-pawn.
