  Chessical: A quick win for Spraggett sacrificing his B on <h7>

After allowing <15.e5!> Salman is positionally worse, but after 15...Nd5? he is lost.

<18...Rh8> also loses to 19.h5+! Rxh5 20.Qd3+ f5 21.exf6+ Kxf6 22.Qf3+ Ke7 23.Qxh5

Mar-18-05  InspiredByMorphy: <Chessical> 8. ...Bd6 9.O-O O-O looks better to me because it doesent waste time like 8. ...c5 does. 8. ...c5 commits blacks bishop to recapture and if white doesent feel like taking the pawn (as what happened in the game) Black has to touch the bishop twice to do so.
