Blass Uri and Amir Ban said earlier that 17.Qh4 was a improvment on current
theory, but I haven't seen one convinsing line yet.
I think Fritz played fairly nice in this game, but after 17...Nb4 18.Bxb4 it
looks in my opinion ( for what its worth ) like black already has got a very
easy position to play.
