I will probably discover that this has all been investigated before and with greater accuracy, but anyway, these are my findings:- Black ought to be able to draw with 46...Bg6, either by sitting tight with 47...Ke6 or simplifying with 47...gxh4. However, in both cases, great accuracy is required, and in a practical game I would say that the odds of White winning are greater than that of Black drawing. If a (youthful) 'Kasparov' can blunder, then so can anyone. One thing is clear, having the pawn on h5 makes life more difficult for Black than if it were on its starting square.} 1-0 [Event "Hoogovens"] [Site "Wijk aan Zee"] [Date "1993.01.??"] [Round "2"] [White "Gelfand, Boris"] [Black "Illescas Cordoba, Miguel"] [Result "1-0"] [ECO "D34"] [WhiteElo "2690"] [BlackElo "2615"] [Annotator "Ftacnik,Lubomir"] [PlyCount "79"] [EventDate "1993.01.??"] [EventType "k.o."] [EventRounds "5"] [EventCountry "NED"] [SourceTitle "CBM 034"] [Source "ChessBase"] [SourceDate "1993.06.01"] [SourceVersion "1"] [SourceVersionDate "1993.06.01"] [SourceQuality "1"] 1. d4 d5 2. c4 e6 3.
