There is an old book that I borrowed from the Library. 17...B-K3!! The point! If now 18.QxN, QxB! or 18 B-Q3 N-N4 Black keeps a pawn with an easy win, while 18 BxB leads to "Philidor's legacy": 18...Q-N4 ch 19 K-N1 N-K7 ch 20 K-B1 N-B6 dbl ch 21 K-N1 Q-B8 ch 22 RxQ N-K7 mate! So Byrne acceps the Queen offer, allowing multiple discovered checks. Sorry that I put this in descriptive notation. 18.Bd3 Nb5 -+ is what it means. Castle2000
