| | May-15-13 R Gralla vs D Frank, 2013
| |
|
Nightsurfer: The "sacrifice" of a pawn, namely <36.a4! ...> after the move of preparation <35.Re1 ...> - an "offer" that Black would like to turn down, please see the diagram as follows ... [DIAGRAM] ... , is the advance of an infantry unit that decides the game.

| | Apr-18-13 J Nikodem vs R Gralla, 1976
| |
|
Nightsurfer: Black choses the solid way to handle the Leningrad variation - with <4. ... h6 5.Bh4 c5> pp., please see the diagram (after <5. ... c5>) as follows ... [DIAGRAM] ... whereas Black has been more courageous in M Vertriest vs A Horvath, 2002 , by playing <4. ... ...

| | Apr-18-13 M Vertriest vs A Horvath, 2002
| |
|
Nightsurfer: That is a very amazing game! Black is a cool guy: He simply ignores the threat <6.e5 ...> by nonchalantly playing <5. ... Bb7!> after <5.e4 ...>, the pin of Black Horse on f6 notwithstanding. And it works - a very instructive game!!
