chankins: 36...Bd3 does win faster and makes more sense too. Why sac your queen to get material when you can just take it? |

chankins: <zsystriker> 0 points for a draw - if you fight back for a draw you would only be preventing your opponent from bettering his score. You are right; there will be negative consequences no matter what you try to change. I'm not offering a perfect solution, only a reasonable ... |

chankins: patzer, in Fritz's line 15.Rd1 seems bad to me. What does Fritz think about 15.Qe4 ? I don't see any way for black to equalise. |

chankins: patzer2, 15.Nd5+ Kd8; 16.Nf6+ Ke7 goes nowhere. A computer like Fritz may find Bd6 objectively better but if white can't find the correct plan with Qd7+ then Ke7 is best. |

|
chankins: 9...Nxb3; 10.Nxg4 Nxa1??; 11.Nf6+ gxf6; 12.Nxf6++. Black does seem okay with 9...dxe5. By exchanging pieces at b3 and d5 he should even get the pawn back, any thoughts? |

chankins: How about 11...Bxd1? 12.Nxf6+ Kf8 13.Nfd7+ Qxd7 14.Nxd7+ Ke8 15.Rxd1 Rd8 16.Nf6+ or maybe Nc5 and Black is only a pawn down with a lousy position |
