This is the second match of a 2 part benoni series. My opponent chooses the popular 7.f4 with 8.Bb5 said to be the benoni killer. But I play the ultra sharp 8...Nbd7 resulting in a bloodly knife fight full of insane tactics. Enjoy! |

!? Ultra sharp in the main line black willingly goes down two full pieces just to get at the white king. At that point it is all out war. |

White king gives the black forces the moon! He may pay for that. |

!? Ready or not here comes the Boom. The alternative 15...Bxc3 is not so boom but less nightmarish |

The tactics on the board are mind boggling. It is a good thing I have played these lines in the past. |
