(Bf1–e2xc4) before the exchange rather than three 9-+r+P+PzP0
(Bf1–c4-b3xc4). Damit beißt Schwarz in den saueren Apfel
und spielt eine bekannte Stellung der Variante 9.Lc4 Da5 9+NsN-+P+-0

nur zwei Züge gemacht hat (Lf1–e2xc4) statt sonst drei

speaking, Black has done well. If the queens were not on the

deciding factor. Materiell steht Schwarz gut. Wenn keine 14.Qf3! Rb8 15.Qg3! Nd7 16.Qxg7 Qe5 17.Qxe5 Nxe5
