He might go for that but in return he's going to come up with some line where he plays Bd2 and we have to promise to never move our queenside pawns and to leave our knight at a2. No... it's not a fair trade..

Now the question is what is happens if curtains responds to 33...Rh6 with 34.Qg2.

[/ QUOTE ]

33...Rh6 is cute but White is fine after either 34.Qg2 or 34.Qg3. All we are doing is making him put the white queen on a better square.

i dont know how we win his rook, but worst case if he goes qg3 is we exchange qs and he ends up with doubled pawns

i think if we go rh6, we would be rooting for him to move either qg3 or qf3

durrs line seems simple and good, but befoe we move, what about:
33....rh6
34 qg2...nc3
35 bd2...ne2+

if
36 kf1 then rh2
if
36 kh1 then nf4
somebody analyze please
i am teh suck
probably if any of this would work for us, he wont move 35bd2 but if he doesnt, then what does he do on move 35?
