Despite its victory, one can hardly say that Gambit Tiger has "added to theory" with the bizarre and unmotivated maneuver 15.Rg2? Fortunately, the opponent didn't pursue queenside play in exactly thematic fashion, preferring instead to return the gained tempi with its dubious notion of Bc6 followed by Bd7.
