My mistake? Quit joking This is _not_ the position where everybody said that engines have little understanding. This is an open position where engines have a _lot_ understanding. Furthermore I don't follow blind the evaluation of an engine. > >The line you propose is fine, but after 13...Nb8 with the idea of Bd7 and Nc6 >the position is only slightly better for white but open to a a dynamic play, so >Fritz could find a way to defend. Of course I looked at 13...Nb8 14.Rfe1 +- White has a huge advantage in development in an open position, Black a horrible pawn structure. Your evaluation is wrong. The position is not just slightly better for white. It's hopeless for Black.
