?!

Maybe Ne2?


Sebastian Boehme    (2008-10-26 02:53:47)
Hmm

I like Qe3, because it creates pressure on h6 square. Another idea might be Nb5, but maybe is not worth a lot...


Slavisa Ilic    (2009-01-07 01:50:08)
Incorrect both

No no, and that move is not so valued by engines...


Ilmars Cirulis    (2009-01-11 14:05:17)
ok

I don't know then. :)


Rick Spangler    (2009-01-20 19:17:51)
Nxh6

This win a pawn and maybe more


Ilmars Cirulis    (2009-01-22 09:55:13)
Re

1.Nxh6 Bxh6 and what?


Alexis Bromo    (2009-01-29 17:13:12)
d5

d5


Normajean Yates    (2009-04-20 04:07:33)
no, it doesnt work...

1.Nxh6+ Bxh6 2.d5 cxd5 and white is a piece down with no compensation.

I like llmars's 1. Ne2.


Normajean Yates    (2009-04-20 04:17:19)
1.Nh2 or 1.Qe3.

On Boehme's suggestion 1.Qe3 :1...Qe5! Now since the N is attacked; so either 2.QxQ h6xQ; or 2.Nh2/Be3 QxQ : in all these cases black gets a good attack. But 2.Qh2! h5 3.Nh2 with equal chances.

So either 1.Nh2 (simpler) or 1.Qe3.


Slavisa Ilic    (2009-09-02 02:26:14)
No one guessed...

The move actually stops any black's ideas...

How about 1.Nb5 and on to 2Nd6 (if 1...cxb5 then 2.e4xb7). Now if 2...Nxd6 then 3.Nf6+ Bxf6 4. exf6. White gives up a knight for good attacking prospects.

Sorry, that did not come out formatted, the way I wanted... This is the line I wanted to paste, really: 22 1:14:06 1.384.270.832 318.794 +0.46 Ng4h2 Rc8c7 a2a3 Rc7d7 Be4xc6 Bb7xc6 Qf3xc6 Rd7xd4 Rd1xd4 Rd8xd4 Nh2f3 Rd4d8 Re1e4 Qe7d7 Qc6c4 h4h3 Re4d4 Qd7e7 Rd4xd8 Qe7xd8 g2xh3 Ne8c7 Kg1g2 f7f6 Qc4h4 Qd8e8 Qh4g4 f6f5 Qg4d4 Black remains with the extra bishop, but white has good pieces and a pawn on the 5th which black is focused on blocking

1.Nb5

G2-G3

I like G2-G3 which paves the way to the queen or the rooks, although fragilising the king...

yes, g2-g3 is very interesting indeed
