What does Glaurung think after each move of the following sequence:

(1. e4 e5 2. Bc4 Nf6 3. d4 exd4 4. Nf3 Nc6 5. O-O Bc5 6. e5 d5 7. exf6 dxc4 8.
fxg7 Rg8 9. Bg5 f6 10. Bh6 Qd5 11. Re1+ Ne7 is the variation in question)

12. Nxd4 Bxd4 13. Nc3 Qc5 14. Ne4 Qe5 15. c3 Bb6 16. Ng3!

After 16. Ng3, Rybka fails high to +2.50 after a while. I'd be interested in
what Glaurung has to say.
