Logical Chess Move by Move Game 1 - 2007/04/15 19:42
I've started working my way through Chernev's logical chess move by move and I have a question about a position in the first game...
[Event "?"] [Site "Berlin"] [Date "2007.04.14"] [Round "?"] [White "von Scheve"] [Black "Teichmann"] [Result "0-1"] [EventDate "1907.??.??"] [Annotator "Chernev, I"] [Book "Logical Chess MBM Game 1"]
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.c3 Qe7 5.O-O d6 6.d4 Bb6 7.a4 a6 8.a5 Ba7 9.h3 Nf6 10.dxe5 Nxe5 11.Nxe5 Qxe5 12.Nd2 Bxh3 13.gxh3 Qg3+ 14.Kh1 Qxh3+ 15.Kg1 Ng4 16.Nf3 Qg3+ 17.Kh1 Bxf2 0-1
Chernev makes no mention of an alternative, but why not 16. Bxf7+ which seems to give white some counterplay?
The best I can figure from there is something like:
16. Bxf7+ Kxf7 17. Qf3+ Qxf3 18. Nxf3
Sure, white's still in bad shape, but he's not trapped in the quick mate?
