| Chutzpah: Thank you for pointing that out. I had this on the board tonight and missed it, duh. I won anyway, but it was a long grind. Could�ve been so easy! |

Dec-10-22 Alekhine vs H Weenink, 1931
| |
| Chutzpah: Vukovic says Black has nothing better than 9…h6, but 9…Nd7 completes development and is fine. 9.Bxh7 just trades the bishop for three pawns after 9…g6. The king has an escape route via d8. It’s not pretty but it holds. |

Dec-10-22 Botvinnik vs Chekhover, 1935
| |
| Chutzpah: 10…Nc5 looks ugly (cf 10…Re8). Why 10…Nc5? To retreat to d7 and just sit there? Am I missing something? |
