Jan-14-05  Knight13: Great play by Staunton!
May-16-07  Knight13: Moves like 13...Rg8 and 14...Rc8 are ridiculous. A sign that Black is struggling and don't know what to do.

  Honza Cervenka: <Moves like 13...Rg8 and 14...Rc8 are ridiculous.> 13...Rg8 is a reaction on threatening 14.Ng6, 14...Rc8 simply covers Pc7, which is under X-ray of white DSB. But here the black position was already quite hopeless anyway. Instead of 11...h6? it was correct to play 11...Bd6 with next 12...0-0 and black is fine.
