Strongest move | ||||

1... c6 |
Most likely the necessary move at this point of the game. | ||||
| | |||||
|
2. d4 |
Centre play! | ||||

Centre play at its strongest. | ||||

Now some forced moves follow. | ||||

3... cxd5 4. c4 |
Strongest! | ||||

4... Nf6 5. Nc3 Nc6 |
!? Of course, Anatoly Karpov plays the best move in this position: 5...e6 | ||||
| | |||||

6. Bg5 |
! 6.Sf3 is not as strong as the text move. But "Endspielingenieure" prefer to play calmly. | ||||
| | |||||
|
6... e6 |
Only move. Qa5 was played by myself on previous occasions but my last success was a loss. It was time to change! | ||||

7. c5 |
White follows the normal plan. | ||||

12. bxc3 O-O 13. Rb1 |
The critical position of the line. Study the games on chessbase.com if you like to know more. | ||||

Not even a novelty. | ||||

Novelty! Whte is slightly better here because the black knight is out of play. | ||||

16. cxb6 axb6 17. Qh5 h6 18. Rfe1 |
? Better was 18.f4 with attacking chances on the f-file. Still, the black knight is out of lay and this fact gives white a better position. I think this is why 13.-Sa5 was not good enough. | ||||
| | |||||
|
18... Nc6 |
Only move - the return of the knight. | ||||
| | |||||

19. Nxc6 Bxc6 20. Qf5 |
Childhoodish play! | ||||
