My vote goes with either Qb3 or g3 fianchettoing the bishop and perhaps enabling us to take the rook. Either move will do.
|

Current board
White to move
|

blacks move was Ba6 it attacks our c4 pawn
What are some votes for our next move?
If you can read this please vote, This game is open to all club members.
I will count both votes so far as I like them both too!
1 vote for Qb3 and also 1 vote for Bg2.

My vote says with BG2.
|
|
I vote for Qb3 attacks dsb and defends c4 pawn as well.

I change my vote to Qb3 as their where are already two votes for it.
|
|
I'm with dmaestro on this and vote for Qa4 because it puts pressure on both of black's Bishops, leaving black in an uncomfortable position.
|
|
I vote Qa4
3 votes Qa4
2 votes Qb3
Qa4 will be made
|
|
Now our turn to move
Bxc4 was played by Black
it is our turn to move

Taken from game chat
alex_ratchkov: I think that 8.Qa4 was a mistake...better was 8.Bg2 or 8.a3
1 vote Bg2 by Sue
I'm still thinking...

Qa4 was ok but after ...c5 we needed to worrry about the c pawn. Was out or I would have suggested a3 BxN PxB. Now Bg2 is probably best option.
|
|
The only thing I don't like about Bg2 is that our B is effectively blocked by our N. Now, I believe it was myevilluck who told me that it's generally not a good idea. Then again, teardrop34 mentioned something important which I posted in a recent annotation. Does it work for you. That chess quote is one of the few things that I deem to be irrelevant as I like the long diagnol. So, now becomes the bigger picture as just that reason wouldn't be thinking steps ahead, though. The question is what does it accomplish, and where do we get to? I like it because it enables us to castle short. For me, castling is what I'll still generally go for.

My vote is still Bg2.
|
|
I also like Bg2 as that enables us to castle, on our next move. Yes, that is my vote.
|
|
I'll cast my vote same way so 3 votes Bg2 this will be played.
|
|
Our turn to move
From game chat "alex_ratchkov: The question for me now was which of the two candidate moves to choose: 9...Nc6 or 9...d5. I am going with 9...d5 since then my queen's knight might have more flexibility if it eventually goes on d7"
White to move...
