Kibitzer's Corner
Jan-01-08  dabearsrock1010: queens will now be traded, black king marches to the c pawn and forces white to trade his bishop for the pawn, and then its easy.
Jan-02-08  zoren: threat of Be5 is easier...
Jan-02-08  86thjoydivision: 55 ... Qc1, hits the button better. but anyway text move accomplishes just as much.
Jan-02-08  Mameluk: What an easy victory for black in modern benoni. Already 12. f4 and 13. a5 seems to be very very dubious giving black strong initiative.
Jan-02-08  ajile: After 12.f4 if Black can prevent e5 then the e4 pawn is very weak. This is what happened in the game. Black piled his pieces up on the e5 square and then took advantage of this weakness. Probably White should have gone in for 12.f3 instead. 7.Nd2 seems dubious also when White can play the simpler 7.e4.
Nov-19-14  tranquilsimplicity: Brilliant use of the King to create a mating net.#
