Actually 17.Qd2 was played against possible Nf4. I had planned to play positional like a4 or b3. But I succumbed to temptation 🙂
Its actually quite instructive how you strip his king of the defenders after your sac. Very nice game to look at 🙂

Originally posted by BedlamIn these Bishop Opening games, playing an early ...h6 is often a long-term positional liability. I bet Korch already was preparing for the possibility of a sacrifice on the h6-square the moment Black played this on the seventh move.
...Were you planning to sac on h6 from move 14-15ish or was it something you saw on that move?
