Schiller`s Vienna Analysis in SCO - 2006/07/03 08:49
I guess my EXPERT analysis of the Vienna that can be found at: got ignored by Mr. Schiller when analyzing the Spielmann-Flamberg game starting on p 40 of his new STANDARD CHESS OPENINGS. That game went 1. e4 e5 2. Nc3 Nf6 3. f4 d5 4. fxe5 Nxe4 5. Nf3 Bg4 6. Qe2 Nc5, but in discussing one alternative, 6...Ng5, Schiller misses that 7. Qb5+ wins for White. I know, I know, the "theory" gives 7. Qb5+ a question mark, but that is based on oft-repeated yet woefully incomplete analysis that ends after 7...c6 8. Qxb7 Nxf3+ 9. gxf3 Bxf3, simply missing that 10. Rg1 parries Black`s threats, who is now forced to play 10...Nbd7, to which White responds 11. d4! with a won game (11. Qxc6 allows Black too much counterplay after 11...Rc8, but after 11. d4! Black`s attempt to defend the pawn by 11...Qc8 fails to 12. Ba6).
For more detailed analysis, go to the website listed above. I finished second in last year`s Omaha city championship, am an ICC expert, and former USCF postal expert and participant in the exclusive US Correspondence Championship, credentials not much less impressive than Mr. Schiller`s, AND I`ve been playing the Vienna for several years.
The web site is not pretty, but there is deep analysis, in some cases past move 20. It may not all be perfect, but after 11. d4 White has NUMEROUS paths to victory. Check it out, and HAPPY THANKSGIVING.
