Hi all,
Actually, not capturing the pawn at e6 is theory... It's too dangerous for white
to do that and, IMHO, the first to deviate from known theory was black, by
playing 13. ... Nxd4 instead of 13. ... Nxe5.
IMHO, This kind of discussion is taking us to nowhere. I think that Will should
contact ICC admin and report his suspect (Will might be right about it.).
Let's go back to our Alpha-Beta, C++, discussion ;)
Regard's
Helcio Alexandre
ps: BTW, I know to whom this game belongs to... He he he ;)
