  bright1: I wonder if Black instead of playing 11. ... Bc8-d7 had tried Nb8-d7 could that create a fortress. For example: 11. ... Nb8-d7 12. hxg6 hxg6 13. Rxh8+ Bxh8 13. Qg3 Nf8

Of course, instead of 13. Qg3 white could play 13. Qh3 but after Bh8-g7 14. Qh7 Kf7 15. Bd3 then Black still have the defensive move Nf8 forcing the white queen away. Any thoughts everyone?

  bright1: Sorry for the double post, but I just realized that 11. ... Nb-d7 allows 12. Na3-b5 and there's no good way to hold the pawn on d6.
