Kibitzer's Corner
Jan-10-06  Endgame: Dominated!
Nov-10-07  Karpova: For 7...Nxd5 see Minev vs Morcken, 1956
Nov-28-08  YoungEd: Black sure gets bottled up here! Where was his big mistake?
Nov-28-08  Buttinsky: I think a6 or Be7 is better than 6...b6
Dec-01-08  YoungEd: I agree, <Buttinsky>. Also, Black should have prevented e5 somehow, even if it meant a massive pawn exchange.
Mar-27-11  crazyedmen: passive pawn exchange how? 9 ..., dxe4 is met by 10 d5! and 9... cxd4 is met by 10 exds

? It's just a blunder. Here's the only other example in the database. Presumably Black missed 9.e4 both times. E Lundin vs A Staehelin, 1952
