Position after 17... c3

Previous Next

I really like Black's position here. Although the e-pawn will go also, White's bishops are not in very effective defensive positions. In any case, Black certainly could not let the opportunity of 17 ... c3 pass by. (Have a question? Ask GM Rohde! Not all questions can be answered, but the Grandmaster will pick selected topics to cover live from e-mail received.)
