Kibitzer's Corner
Feb-10-05  MidnightDuffer: This is known as being taken to the cleaners, Wow! Does Pal get caught in the crossfire here, of course, reading under Pirc's bio page ( Vasja Pirc ), sometimes a true maestro, obviously Pal must be just a baby at this point!

When it rains it pours, perhaps, 13. ... exd5 would give a better game but already the position is constrictive by White, too far gone by move 13. for Black!

Dec-19-06  GlennOliver: 16. ... Bc5 instead of Na5, followed asap by 0-0, seems to give Black a playable (although slightly inferior) game.
