A host of passed pawns...
22.11.2009
– ... versus an attack in the g- and f-file was featured in the following game, where after
30...f4 31.Qxg5 Rxg5 the queens were exchanged, but Black now was able to put the double threat 32...fxe3 and ...f3 in the balance. What is your comment on this situation?
A) The passed pawns are not advanced far enough yet, so Black wins;
B) with best play a positional draw is the logical consequence;
C) White remains victorious.
The solution is here,
but first ponder over it with a larger version of the diagram.

Nigel Davies:
Build a 1.d4 Repertoire
Creating a Repertoire can be a difficult and demanding job, especially for
those with limited study time. Attempts to implement a lot of new openings at the
same time can set a player adrift in a sea of unknown chess patterns. This in turn can
have a catastrophic impact on their game.
On this DVD Nigel Davies explains how to go about this process of building a repertoire
the right way, with a minimal amount of stress or sweeping wholesale changes.
