| |
| Warehouse Duffer: <Fisheremon> First, thank you for correcting my typo. Second, I guess I will have to do some research on your 'Catalan Bishop' reference because it seems to me that after 10. Bxa8 Nc6, White could play 11. Bxc6 and then get ready for any storm that Black could send. I |

| |
| Warehouse Duffer: This is one ending for me to play over and learn from. If white trades his Rook for the black Pawn and Bishop, then White has some careful moves to do to maintain opposition and get the win. |

| |
| Warehouse Duffer: I am just an ol' Class C player who is coming back to the Game after a lull of fifteen years or so. I was drawn to this player, Chowdhury, because I played a fellow by this name when he was in the U.S. He was here on a student visa as I recall. He was rated 500 pts. above ... |
