I was going to ask for a poll, however do we have any moves on the table besides h4?

[/ QUOTE ]

Someone mentioned ...b6, and ...Qd7 is another "safe move" for those who don't like ...h4.

[/ QUOTE ]

qd7 is safe yes, but doesn't that relieve a lot of the pressure we have on curtains right now?

25...Ra6 should be rejected because of 26.Rc2 and nobody
has mentioned 25.g4 (instead of 25.Rc5) against 25...h4.

I am amazed I saw the post asking for curtains move before he submitted his move. Does he check his PM's every minute waiting for a call to move in this game or something?
