More About Helensburgh Scotland-Host of the Tournament
With a population at the 2004 census of 20,626, Helensburgh (Baile Eilidh in Gaelic) is a town in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. It lies on the north shore of the Firth of Clyde and the eastern shore of the entrance to the Gareloch.
Helensburgh was founded in 1776 when Sir James Colquhoun of Luss built spa baths on the site of Ardencaple Castle, which dated back to about 1600. He then had the seaside resort town constructed to the east of the spa on a formal layout in the style of Edinburgh New Town, and named it after his wife Helen.
White is well placed and has the open g-file while Qa5 is a spectator on the queenside. What do you recommend for white?

White has parallel hanging pawns and is possibly ready to strike. What do you recommend for white?
- 23.d5(unleashing Bb2 and banking everything on the energy of the d-pawn, as played in the game)
- 23.c5(pressing the queenside and the queen)
- 23.Bb3(keeping the tension and all options open)
- Somthing else
