Subject: Junior's opening book in london.

I think that Junior suffered from a bad opening book in the first 2 games.

This is the position after 15 moves against SOS

[D]r3k1r1/1pqb1p2/p2ppp1p/2b5/P3P3/2N3PP/1PP2PB1/R2QR1K1 w q - 0 1

Albert silver suggested 16.Ne2 but I think that Ne2 is also bad for white
because of Qb6 Rf1 Qxb2.

This is the position against Diep before 19...h5

[D]4kb1r/1r1b1p1p/1q1pp3/p3P3/1p1N4/3BQ3/PPP3PP/2KRR3 b k - 0 1

Black has tactical problems

For example 19...Bg7 20.Qg5 Be5 21.Rxe5 dxe5 22.Qxe5 Rf8 23.Nf5 f6 24.Qe4 Kd8
25.Nd6 Rc7 26.Bb5

24...Ra7 25.Bb5 Kf7 is probably better for black but white has a clear
advantage.
