24...
Oct-05-07  gambitfan: 7... ♕d7?

7... ♗c5 seems much better and more dynamic... followed by ... ♘g8 - e7 - g6

Oct-05-07  gambitfan: Let us have a look at the Black Queen's Knight...

12... ♘h6? we wait till thre 12th mobe to take this knight out!

In addition, ♘ is useless on h6, too peripheral ; much better ♘g8 - e7 - g6

25... Nf7? the second move of this knight takes place at the ... 25th move!

In general, the knights should be the first pieces to be mut into action...

Oct-05-07  gambitfan: Why did ♗lack loose the game ?

Something strikes me in this game...

Due to the initial exchange of the opening, ♗lack have a slight structural disadvantage with their pawn structure...

However, they initiated many exchanges of major and minor pieces and decided to reach a final ♘ + 7♙ // ♘ + 7♙...

This was nor very wise since after the exchange, White are better off due to their pawn structure...

Jul-04-09  rjsolcruz: The N ending needs a background music and I recommend the the Door's song (i forgot the title) but not the lyrics "the knight divides the day".
