And if Junior played it against itself, would white indeed win? I don't think so. It looks like IF it is the best move, It is more like a regretable necesity, though maybe it still offers some hope. But not a great winner. Maybe Junior was wise to see that his position as not too good, making that move a sporting chance. S.Taylor
