Check your books about the Dragon, Anthony. 16... Nxe4 is the only move which *doesn't* lose for black. I don't understand the game continuation you give, the move Qh6 is not possible. I suppose you forgot a move, and that the real continuation was this: 16... Nxe4 17. Qe3 Rxc3 18. bxc3 Bxh6 19. Qxh6 Nf6. If this is correct, black's mistake was at move 18. The correct move is 18... Nf6, after which white has never been able to prove a win (unless something has been discovered in the last few years). Tord
