Re: Curtains vs PoG
[ QUOTE ]
Is liquidating the minor pieces to our advantage? Others have suggested earlier that with an isolated queen's pawn, trading off the minor pieces is a disadvantage to us as we have the weaker pawn structure for endgame.
Personally, I like castling before Curtains can work up a threat on our king,

Yes you win the prize!
Trading minor pieces leads to a losing endgame.
The op stated the bishop can't attack the pawn, however the bishop can pin the knight and that weakens the pawn further.
We are behind so exchanging is bad news....
