| A nice move by Benjamin. The idea is that after 16 cxd5, Black can play 16 ... Bxa4 17 Qxa4 Qb6, whereas if 16 exd5, then Black would have no need or desire to play ... Bd7xa4. (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.) |   |
