I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one here who love chess. Let's talk about strategies, ask questions, give advices...
I begin. I'm trying to get better thanks to a french website (+ de 100 parties commentes - Mieux jouer aux Echecs) which shows different games organized under different categories. Here is one of the games :
1. e4 c5
2. Nf3 Nc6
3. d3 g6
4. g3 Bg7
5. Bg2 d6
6. Nbd2 e6
7. O-O Nge7
8. Re1 O-O
9. Nf1 b5
10. h4 Bd7
11. h5 gxh5
12. Nh4 Ng6
13. Qxh5 Nxh4
14. gxh4 f5
15. exf5 Rxf5
16. Bg5 Qe8
17. Qg4 Qf7
18. Ng3 Rxf2
19. Ne4 Ne5
20. Nf6 Qxf6
21. Bxa8 Nxg4
22. Bxf6 Rxf6
23. c3 d5
24. Re2 Rf8
25. a4 Rxa8
26. axb5 Bxb5
27. Rxe6 Bxd3
28. Re7 a5
29. Ra4 c4
30. Kg2 Be4
31. Kh3 h5
32. Ra1 Rf8
Then white resigned.
So I'm wondering after 16. Bg5, isn't h6 better than Qe8 ? Even if 17. Bxd8 Rxh5 it would take some time I think for the bishop in d8 to get out and be active again. What do you think ? Maybe I'm missing something, after looking closely to each move I'm tired.
