Just to point out, Counterplay played this game like a moron (not to take credit away from Junior, g4 was brilliant). first of all, f6 by counterplay was just dumb, opening the e file caused all this problems. Not to mention the clear plan was to push the a pawn home. The black bishop controled a1, it was virutally impossible to stop. Jason Williamson (operator of Counterplay)
