Hi Ernst,

This is not a 'trap'. A trap is an opening line that leads to a bad position for
one of the two sides. Here I think there is nothing wrong with White's position.
The real problem was the pinned knight on a2. If Rebel had activated the knight,
it would have a good position in my opinion.

I also think White had a draw with Ne1! (see my posting above), so the real
errors came later. I find it funny that people always blame the opening after a
loss! Here it was pure chess knowledge that led to the loss.
