HI TV.

It was not knock at you. As I skipped through the game I too thought now
is the time to castle, then OOPS the e-pawn goes.
I added: ".....but that's just note oversight, easily done."


You are right 13.Nxf6+ does give Black loads of play. Perhaps

I was wondering what 1.Nxd4 cxd4 2. Bf3 could bring. Check the following pgn's. Tell me if you find a refutation it.

Hi Tv.

You are look good with the Bf3 idea. I like that it's better than my line.

Poor DR85 we are putting his game through the mangle.
I'm seeing (or not seeing is a better description) all kinds of varitions
that I never suspected where in there.

I'm all chess'd out. Need to recharge, see you on Monday.

In my opinion, it just goes to show that its a surprisingly interesting position (round about move 13).
