  Peligroso Patzer: FWIW, the following game by this player:

[Event "RUS-ch U18"]
[Site "Nojabrsk"]
[Date "2005.04.06"]
[Round "1"]
[White "Kuznetsov, Dmitry"]
[Black "Lovkov, Roman"]
[Result "0-1"]
[ECO "D30"]
[BlackElo "2351"]
[PlyCount "74"]
[EventDate "2005.04.06"]
[EventType "swiss"]
[EventRounds "9"]
[EventCountry "RUS"]
[Source "ChessBase"]
[SourceDate "2005.11.24"]

1. Nf3 d5 2. d4 Nf6 3. g3 e6 4. c4 c5 5. cxd5 exd5 6. Bg2 Nc6 7. O-O cxd4 8. Bg5 h6 9. Bxf6 Qxf6 10. Qb3 Be7 11. Qxd5 O-O 12. Nbd2 Rd8 13. Qb3 Bg4 14. Rac1 Rd7 15. a3 Rad8 16. Rfe1 Qf5 17. Qd3 Qh5 18. b4 Bf5 19. Qb3 a6 20. Red1 d3 21. exd3 Rxd3 22. Rc3 Bf6 23. Rxd3 Rxd3 24. Qa4 Bg4 25. Re1 Be6 26. Re3 Rxe3 27. fxe3 Qd5 28. Qc2 Qa2 29. Qxa2 Bxa2 30. Nd4 Nxd4 31. exd4 Bxd4+ 32. Kf1 b6 33. Bb7 Bb2 34. Bxa6 Bxa3 35. b5 Bb4 36. Ke2 Kf8 37. Bb7 Ke7 0-1

... was cited in a ChessBase opening report I got when I entered the moves through <7. O-O>. This is what was given for the option chosen by Kuznetsov:

"g) 7...cxd4

"Black scores badly (26%).

"played by: Rozentalis, 2588, 1/1; Gallagher, 2525, 0/1; Manor, 2502, 1/1; Gabrielian, 2495, 0.5/1; Zabotin, 2495, 0.5/1

"You should play: 8.Bg5

"Kuznetsov,D - Lovkov,R 0-1"

I am really at a loss to understand why ChessBase would recommend this move. Not only was the result of this game 0-1, the positions for the next several moves (after <8. Bg5>) do not look good for White, nor are they evaluated as such by Fritz.

  Peligroso Patzer: BTW, the game cited in the previous post is the <only> game in ChessBase's Big Database 2012 in which <8. Bg5> was played, which only increases my perplexity why that is the move the opening report says should be played.
