In Gallagher's excellent Play the King's Indian, he looks at the 4 pawns attack with 6. ... c5. After 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 g6 3. Nc3 Bg7 4. e4 d6 5. f4 0-0 6. Nf3 c5 7. dxc5 Qa5 he says that 8. dxc6 is no good because of 8. ... Nxe4. But I can't see what black has after 9. Bd2 other than 9. ... Nxd2 and then exd6 with a lousy d pawn but some compensation. 9. ... Nxc3 seems to fail to 10. Qb3, doesn't it? I've looked around for games with this but haven't got very far. Any help much appreciated!
Whoops, wrong place... I'm posting this in chess instead.
