Ng2 - Matthias, Miguel, Carlos
Bf3 - Graham
Qf4 - Nick
Ra1-b1 - Gerold

Our move is 18.Ng2

That isn't a ponder hit so DD is thinking (says Ray)


Matthias.
My engine was quite strong till I added knowledge to it.

Graham, I will pass for the next couple of White moves. I will set up the MDC and follow the next few moves to get it into the game.

h4. I'm not sure what Qa6 was about, so I'm a little hesitant, but pushing forward seems right to me.

Well unless we can make quick headway on the kingside, I suspect that Black will try to come in on the queenside with Ba5-c3, Rb8-b2,etc.
Example - 19.h4, Bxf5; 20.gf, Ba5; 21.Qf4, Rb8.

I'll go for 19.Ng3

So far we have:

2 votes for Ng3
2 votes for h4

About 5 hours left.

I think that if Bxf5 we take with exf5 and run over the King side with g5. Moreover, all of the sudden, our bishop will find a new life with Bf3. I like that a lot. Black won't take on f5.
