I don't (like Mogens) find any position with Qb6 here, but when analyzing this for the goal to keep the queen on the board you have to check out the threaten Qg4 if White proceed with the same plan as in the game (Nxe6 follow up by e4-e5). It is maybe better to play Qb6 in this position than in the game (Qb6 instead of Qxd1) because you haven't put the f-rook on the e-file. But if this is enough to stop all threats from White (Qg4), I don't know. Maybe best if Black want keep the queen on the board is to put the bishop on d7 instead of e6 in move 12 (proposed by Notkin in ChessToDay). In the diagram all previous played moves (Qd7, Rc8, Re8) allow White to proceed like in the game. Odd Gunnar
