Re:Two Knights Defense Question - 2006/06/27 02:36
Here is some of the analysis. It appears that the assessment that white is better is based on the possibilities for a king hunt against black, as some of the variations I list in my analysis. However, it appears that in the main line (with 11...Kd6), black can hold off mate and keep the material, while in the end generating an attack on the white king. [Event "?"] [Site "?"] [Date "????.??.??"] [Round "?"] [White "White"] [Black "Black"] [Result "-"] [ECO "C57"] [PlyCount "48"]
