As long as it is valid:

http://www.chesscafe.com/fromarchive/fromarchive.htm

Else

http://www.chesscafe.com/archives/archives.htm#The%20Kibitzer

Harding's the Kibitzer, May 1998.

There is also an article on the Marshall in feb 2007.

  

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.

An interesting post but i seem to reading about this about 8 years ago !

18 ...ba  is forced if you want to play the f5 idea as played by Nigel Short v Ivanchuk many moons ago.

Now if you have a refutation of 18.....Qh5 now that would be worth looking at - Black is fine IMHO.

'Well-known theory', I think. Black has some transpositional method of side-stepping this and getting to the real debate round about move 25, I believe. Some expert may be along in a minute to tell what.


I am no Marshall expert, but I thought that 18...Qh5 was preferred these days.  But while we are discussing the Marshall, may I ask if anyone here can say say anything about the current appraisal of White's anti-Marshall ideas?

After this, I think white is winning, at least better. I found the variations on the internet, and they seem to hold. Any comments?

Oh yah, 19...f4 is refuted by 20.Bxf4! Black may be a piece up, but White crushes through on the queenside.
