Oct-01-16 E Torre vs A Rombaldoni, 2016

| Virgil A: Other than the Q, White's strongest piece is the DSB. And it only moved a whopping 3 times the whole game. 2.Bf4. The DSB acts as the rabbit to Black's Kpawns. 7.Bh2. Mission1 accomplished. Black's light squares has been softened. R&R on h2 is well deserved. 21.Bd6. Welcome back, ... |
