I think 15. ...Nf6 is obvious
5imon
20-Jan-18, 00:26

15...Nf6
Agreed
ptitroque
20-Jan-18, 01:28

15... Nf6
ok
cyrano
20-Jan-18, 01:32

15...Nf6
no other choice
5imon
20-Jan-18, 02:43

15...Nf6
I'm going to make this move quickly given we have enough votes already.


The only other option is 15...Nh6 but it's out of the action there.

u have to play N6
riaannieman
20-Jan-18, 03:08

Yes Nf6 please- just as I predicted
tbre0022
20-Jan-18, 18:05

yes thats okay the best move also for me
5imon
22-Jan-18, 00:02

16.f4 has been played


Our turn to move.

My vote is for 16...Ng6 as previously discussed.
ptitroque
22-Jan-18, 00:17

16... Nd7
We cannot prevent their knight to come on e5 Of course, we can exchange whether our knight is on d7 or g6 but if we let the white knight take on g6, we'll weaken our king to take back, playing ... hxg6.
If white plays a further Nxd7, we can take back with our queen.

16. ....Ned7
I support ptitroque's suggestion. I think our knight is more mobile at d7 than at g6.
riaannieman
22-Jan-18, 08:05

We are going down the road I predicted in the previous thread. Ned7 is what I was expecting. Go with it.
5imon
22-Jan-18, 10:35

Votes so far
16...Ng6 (5imon)
16...Ned7 (ptitroque, stalhandske, riaannieman)
cyrano
22-Jan-18, 11:29

Difficult choice
Ned6 looks more natural but maybe Ng6 is better
tbre0022
22-Jan-18, 16:29

Lets go for Ng6
elitelixir_1st
22-Jan-18, 16:36

To restrict Whites movements...
To restrict Whites movements, let's consider: ... Qb4 ?
elitelixir_1st
22-Jan-18, 16:45

and then, go down the ... Ned7, route
How's about that proposal?
5imon
22-Jan-18, 23:33

Votes
16...Ng6 (5imon, tbre0022)
16...Ned7 (ptitroque, stalhandske, riaannieman)

thelitelixir - their last most attacked our knight on e5 so we need to move it or lose it. Also after Qb4 our pawn on e6 could be taken by the knight on d4.
ptitroque

You probably mean 16... Qd4

It let our e6 pawn unprotected and under menace of their knight.
riaannieman
23-Jan-18, 01:49

With some minor deviations we are going down the road that I predicted on 17 January. As far as I can see it is their move, am I right? I think they will now consider to exchange the pawns: cxd5 and as for our answer to that, I suggest that we should consider exd5, not cxd5. However, in the event that they don't exchange, I think their next move will be f4. That makes our knight fall back again (probably Ned7), and then they can capture our pawn and force our queen to run. I was keen to avoid this sequence.

Riaan
This is the current position



They have already made f4.
nambam
23-Jan-18, 04:23

yes, i think Ned7 is the lesser of evils available,so i vote thus
riaannieman
23-Jan-18, 22:03

This is going exactly the way I thought. I vote Ned7.

16. Ned7 is our move then
cyrano
24-Jan-18, 23:58

Ned7 is a WEAK move but probably we can still save the game
