[Note move correction] After a long think, deFirmian decides in favor of the
opposite-side-castling situation. Since White is set up for a pawn storm, he
must go for it - deFirmian also judged that if attacks were pushed to the
background after 10 O-O, Black's pieces would be able to settle on good
squares and White's center would not be able to move forward flexibly.
deFirmian has used an hour and 8 minutes for his first ten moves, and has only
52 minutes left for the next 30.
