More on the Maroczy Bind




Part 2




TWIC 966
IM Izsak pressed the queenside until black cracked in an unusual Maroczy Bind where black also attacked the kingside with …h5-h4-h3!?

White has been massaging the queenside but now the b-pawn is sufficiently protected. What do you recommend for white now?

Torokves Open
(Thanks to Attila Balla for lending me his camera.)
This time in Torokves, I played in the Open tournament instead of the more serious RR group as there I had committed to play in the Rakosmente Open also.

My play was not so great but the players were very cordial and the atmosphere casual and friendly.
