  Chnebelgrind: Probably it was 10. exd6 and 11. ♕b5+
Jun-14-09  rodantero: I think both of them didnt saw the reply
10...c6, so white better would have played 10.exd6, winning a piece at next move.
Nov-07-09  Roleks: It was 10 exd cxd 11.qb5+ 1-0.
I have a very good blitzscore with 7 c3. Winning a piece early in different ways, even against Grandmasters. I even tryed it once against a strong GM but lost. However, he said after that it is a very tricky move. Serios chess is it not.Often you play c3-c4 after not winning the piece and you lost a tempo.
Nov-07-09  Roleks: In a serios game against the strong GM I mean.
