Go up one level in this thread


Its not totally simple for black (who holds all the trumps) to make progress.  I
think black should try playing f6 at some point (maybe immediately).

exf6 looks bad for white as black's bishop becomes active and d4 is very weak.

If white doesn't play exf6, then maybe black can play fxe5.  If white answered
fxe5 then black can try to get his queen to g5 with some activity.  Also, f7
would be an interesting square for a rook.

If white answers dxe5 I'm not sure what black's best plan is but f4 is weak and
the possiblity of d4 gives black some teeth.  Moves such as Qc6 and Re4 suggest
themselves.

cheers,
Peter
