Kibitzer's Corner
May-07-18  Sally Simpson: This was a great game to note up.

I love moves like 4.h3 v the good guys.

It drives them crazy thinking that you think they are dumb enough to take the e4 pawn. They slam down their pens and glare at you.

I actually think 4.Be2 is better as it keeps h3 free for a Rook in the event of Black 0-0 and develops a piece.

I actually gave Jacob's 24.Nxd8 a '?' (he was current British at the time - I have no shame).

I stated the position was alive with 'phantasmagorical' tactics and wanted

24.f5 the h6 Rook moves to h8.
25.f6 the e7 Bishop moves anywhere.
26 f7 checkmate!
