Titled "An Inane Conception" ("The French Connection" "The Immortal Game" and "The Iger Sanction" were all taken) my annotations may also be taken as refective of the title. Best by test RJF

Zwishenzug! (and we all know, "Zwishenzugs win games!" CAC GK Forums 2004) and, Continuing my plan of weakening BL's dark squares. (chasing queens with pieces Good, chasing Queens with pawns Bad. CAC 2006)

Finally! There is an Admission. He gives up and I have Won the battle for f5. As per Nimzo or Steino, I forget, but anyway ... "establish a strong point and overprotect it". I hope they are proud :) Now I've only to clean up, and its over...
