Re: Curtains vs PoG
Sorry I missed out on the good stuff, could not get a decent connection in East Germany.... blah...
Glad to be back home... Seems like we've made his queen a big bishop. Which limits the scope of the queen, I'd swing the rook back to c6 and double up controlling the open file.

Re: Curtains vs PoG
24...b5
We need to play the whole board. Now that curtains' queen is on g2 we can try to take control of the queenside. A one-dimensional plan of blowing up white's kingside won't be enough.

Re: Curtains vs PoG
We should go after his king, it looks weak.
Also, that f2 pawn seems ripe for plucking; we need to scoop it up before he can bring in a fifth defender.

Re: Curtains vs PoG
[ QUOTE ]
Also, how do you guys rate black's/white's chances of a win here? chances of a draw? [/ QUOTE ] This is easy. Either the game ends in a draw, or someone wins. so: Chance of Draw: 50% Chance of not a Draw: 50% Now, given that there was not a draw, either white wins or black wins so: White's chance of winning: 25% Black's chance of winning: 25% Hope this clears things up.

Re: Curtains vs PoG
24...Nc3 25. Qxd5 Nxd5 26. Rfe1 and if 26...Rfe6 27. Bd2.
I think 24...b5 may be better. Looking at everything superficially, Black's remaining minor is better than White's, Black's rooks are better than White's, the Black Queen is a bit better. The only thing is that the Black king doesn't have "luft" yet, and oh yes, down a pawn... but obviously a lot of compensation for it.

Re: Curtains vs PoG
** I know nothing about chess but have been following with great interest**
It seems like b5 would be a good move he cant go Qh3 so we can def. get to b4 [ QUOTE ] Why do people like ...b5? Explain to me what this move has to do with chess. [/ QUOTE ] Probably nothing, I just see us closing in on the King and he seems like he is on his heels.
