Don't know whether he can avoid it or not, but Black's position is pretty rotten
as can be shown with moves like 1.Bxf7 Kxf7:
13(26)& 8:07.00 133480612 +3.22 Nf3-e5 Kf7-e8 Qd1-h5 g7-g6 Ne5xg6
Ng8-f6 Qh5-h4 Rh8-g8 Ng6xf8 Ke8xf8 e4-e5
Nf6-g4 Re3-f3 d7-d6 e5xd6 c7xd6 Bf4xd6
Anyway, the Baron chooses the same line as Fritz does, winning a pawn on the 6th
move too, but I'm not ruling out that when letting it run longer it might find
better ways of winning material.
12(20)& 2:51.66 41597321 +2.83 Nc3-b5 Nb8-a6 Nf3-e5 e7-e6 d4-d5
d7-d6 d5xe6 f7xe6 Qd1-h5 g7-g6 Ne5xg6
Ng8-f6 Qh5-h4
