Kibitzer's Corner
Sep-19-09  alexrawlings: Interesting exchange sac with 19 Rxd5. Would 25 Bxh6 have been stronger? Or maybe 25 Qxe6+
May-07-12  rodantero: White could have gain back the pawn (with a small advantage) after 9.Bxb5!! (accepting the sacrifice would increase this advantage) 9...f6 10.Bf4!
