For those that do not believe

I got several commnents on last weeks post on the line 8.Qe1 Nc6 9.Qh4 Bf5 10.h3 Bxc2 11.Rf2 Na5 12.Bf1 Bf5 13.Bh6

I indicated this line "gives white complete equality" - but I admit - I was wrong. I should have said "And white is winning in all lines". Let's look at the possible lines

a/ 13...Qd6 14.Ng5 += white is leading the dance...

b/ 13...e6 14.Bg5 redeploying the bishop seems odd, but now g4 seems lethal.

b1/ 14...Nc6 15.Re1 +=
b2/ 14...h6 15.Bxh6 +=
b3/ 14...b5 15.Bxb5 +=

c/ 13...Bxh6 14.Qxh6

c1/ 14...e6 15.Rd1 +=
c2/ 14...Nc6 15.d5 +-
c3/ 14...Qd6 15.Bg5 +=
c4/ 14...c6 15.Ng5 +-
c5/ 14...Re8 15.Ng5 +=

d/ 13...Nc6 14.Rd1

d1/ 14...Nd5 15.g4 +=
d2/ 14...Qd6 15.Ng5 +=
d3/ 14...Nb4 15.Ng5 +=
d4/ 14...e6 15.Ng5 +=

e/ 13...b5 14.g4 +=

Such is life in the Bogoljubow defense - a complicated position, with white having the best cards....
