WhiteRook48: At move 4, 4. Be2 was the move played most often - it is also the move with the poorest results for White.

| | Nov-21-12 Ponomariov vs A Alavkin, 1997 
| |
WhiteRook48: Black appears to be winning after 60...Nxf4+!? 61 Nxf4 Qd2+ 62 Qxd2 cxd2 63 a7 d1=Q 64 a8=Q Qxg4+
Time to check.

|
WhiteRook48: <master of defence> White probably didn't want to allow 42...Bxb3.

| |
|
WhiteRook48: Oh. I said, 17 Qxh5 gxh5 18 Rg3+ Bg7 19 Rxg7+ Kxg7 20 Nxe6+ followed by 21 Nxc7. Not the best, but the best I could find.

| |
|
WhiteRook48: Against the Dutch, I usually play 2 Bg5, and it usually works pretty well. I've never understood why people play anything else against the Dutch Defense, can anyone help clarify for me? Signed, A Confused Noob

| |
|
WhiteRook48: 24...Qxe3+! 25 Bxe3 Rxe3 winning back the queen was my answer. I don't think I've gotten a Sunday puzzle right in four months.

| |
|
WhiteRook48: I'm voting for 4. h4.
4. g4 seems a little unsound to me, Black can just play 4...Be4.

| | Aug-02-12 Judit Polgar vs N Gaprindashvili, 1990 
| |
|
WhiteRook48: yup, 31...Rc3 is a crusher. White cannot maintain the defense of c6 and g2 at the same time.
