Btw, what do you think about that Dreev book?

Dreev mentions this line on p117 of new book. Considers 17...h5!? quite similar to game, and has some small improvements in 17...Bg7.

Another draw and again not a boring one:

MNb - Groß-Winter, ICCF CL/2010/C2 
1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.Nc3 e6 5.Bg5 dxc4 6.e4 b5 7.Be2 Nbd7 8.O-O h6 9.Bh4 g5 10.Bg3 b4 11.Na4 Nxe4 12.Be5 Nef6 13.Bxc4 g4 14.Bxf6 Qxf6 15.Ne5 Nxe5 16.dxe5 Qxe5 17.Qxg4 Bd7 18.Rad1 h5 19.Qf3 Rd8 20.Rfe1 Qc7 21.Rd3 c5 22.Red1 Ke7 23.Nxc5 Qxc5 24.Qb7 Qxc4 25.Rxd7+ Rxd7 26.Rxd7+ Kf6 27.Qf3+ Ke5
  

The book had the effect good books usually have: it made the stupids more stupid, the intelligent more intelligent and the other thousands of readers remained unchanged.

Spassky Gambit

The thread in which I had posted my first game in the Spassky Gambit seems to have disappeared (even Google can't find it) so I start a new thread for those who are interested. This one is only a draw, but a rather exciting one.

MNb-Haller, em WS/H/187 ICCF
1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.Nc3 e6 5.Bg5 h6 6.Bh4 dxc4 7.e4 g5 8.Bg3 b5 9.Be2 Bb7 10.O-O Nbd7 11.Qc2 Nh5 12.d5 Nxg3 13.hxg3 Bg7 14.dxe6 fxe6 15.e5 Qe7 16.a4 a6 17.Qg6+ Qf7 18.Qe4 O-O-O 19.Qe3 Qe7 20.axb5 cxb5 21.Qa7 Nb8 22.Qb6 Rhe8 23.Nxb5 axb5 24.Qxb5 Rd5 25.Qxc4+ Nc6 26.b4 Qxb4 27.Qc2 Rc5 28.Qh7 Bxe5 29.Nxe5 Rxe5 30.Bf3 Qe7 31.Qg6 Rf8 32.Rfb1 Ref5 33.Ra4 Rc5 34.Rxb7 Rc1+ 35.Kh2 Kxb7 36.Bxc6+ Kxc6 37.Qe4+ Kb5 38.Ra2 Rc4 39.Qe5+ Qc5 ½-½

That other thread contained this game:

MNb - Calder, em CL 2007 ICCF
1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.Nc3 e6 5.Bg5 h6 6.Bh4 dxc4 7.e4 g5 8.Bg3 b5 9.Be2 a5 10.Qc2 g4 11.Ne5 Qxd4 12.Rd1 Qb6 13.h3 gxh3 14.Rxh3 Bg7 15.Nxf7 Kxf7 16.e5 Nd5 17.Bh5+ Kg8 18.Qg6 1–0

In another game, played in between, I lost, but I'd rather not show that one. I suffices to say that 1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.Nc3 e6 5.Bg5 dxc4 6.e4 b5 7.Be2 h6 8.Bh4 Be7 9.0-0 0-0 10.e5 is not good enough.

Feel free to comment.
