| Of course I meant it cramped Black's king, not White's! White's king was on a deckchair smoking a Havana. | |

| Well, I went a pawn up, but that was the only good thing I did in this game. Black's move 16 was critical. Taking the bishop with the knight seemed right, but all it did was cramp White's king. It couldn't really go anywhere. As such, the double knight attack overpowered White's limited options. Taking the bishop with the queen had to be better; that way the king had a means of escape. David simply had all the right moves. Excellent play. | |

| Well played, David. I like the way you declined the immediate capture of Black's Rook on h8 for the sake of developing your attack on Black's King. Neat ending. I think Ken paid a heavy price for losing too many tempi by moving his white square Bishop 5 times in the first 9 moves! | |
