But even more so, I find it interesting that Junior was not able to crash through on the King side with Black's Queen stuck on a4 for so long. I get the feeling that this shows there is still room for the comps to improve in that I suspect White had enough room to shift the battle to the King side and break through with advantage. But that did not happen. Possibly this isn't the case here, I haven't looked at the game seriously. Cheers, Chuck
