It seemed to me that part of the problem is that Junior didn't try to exchange
Piket's powerful dark-square bishop early when he had the chance (9. Bh6 instead
of Bg5 might have worked, this is what Crafty wants to play.).  Black dominated
the dark squares, and they opened a line right to the white king.   Later in the
game, Junior was pushing pawns on the kingside when it should've been paying
attention to the queenside, especially the b-file.
