Potter, John Russell - GM Benjamin, Joel - 2006/07/17 23:11
I have greedily pasted the game below, PGN-compatible.
GM Benjamin played the so-severely called Two Knights Tango here. I`m curious as to what some strong players think of this. Of cuorse, I can easily run Fritz 8 on it, but I don`t always trust its assessaments of wildly opening positions. It does, however, claim that White is winning after 17.Qxc5. GM Benjamin said himself during the postmortem that he thought his pawn sacrifice was unnecessary and duboius.
Would anyone care to look at this game?
