May-20-16 H Strick van Linschoten vs Euwe, 1920

Shivam21: Instead of the obvious 10...d4, black played 10...Qd6 instead. I like this move. Sort of mind game going on. Inviting white to place his knight on an outpost. And for doing so white has to get rid of the c6 pawn, while doing so black opens the position and pins the other knight ... |

Shivam21: There is a better move for white after 33...c5.
Its 34.Qh4! Threatening Qd1+ (winning the rook). Black should defend by 34... Kh7 But still white can force a weak exchange of a rook for a knight and be up material. |
