10...h6 reminds me of hitchhiking.
Yeah, that looks right, it allowed me to get a pawn storm started, would have been much harder with his pawn at home on h7, right?
Joined 29 Aug '09 Moves 1574 Well you could take on h6 immediately with 11.Bxh6 or first triple thy zeroes then remove the pedestrians thumb.
Joined 12 Mar '03 Moves 44411 10. ... h6 doesn't look inspired indeed, except if your opponent hoped on 11.Bxh6. Because I think that would not be a good idea for white, there isn't enough attacking material on hand to justify a bishop vs. 2 pawns sack : 11. ... gxh6 12.Qxh6 Ng4 eliminates immediate threats and keeps the material advantage.
Joined 29 Aug '09 Moves 1574 Uhoh I hope folks don`t interpret that as a play h6 recomendation.

Joined 17 Dec '07 Moves 3766 Once black plays h6 and Re8 I'm surprised that the the Bxh6 sac isn't a go. The unprotected f7 pawn seems to be winnable if black takes back on h6.
Joined 29 Aug '09 Moves 1574 See folks how terrible ...h6 is you can take it instantly and clobber or you can take it later since there is no good way to prevent it.

ctPlease. First of all, I did not advocate ... h6, I merely indicated what a possible psycho-tactical motive could be to make that (not very inspiring, was my wording) move. But your pleading against ... h6, based on 'religious'-type convictions, and against actual continuation lines that make the sac on h6 at least questionable if not bad, is not helping anybody. I would expect from a Master to either retract these statements or to make them hard by analysis evidence. Your pick.

So h6 doesn't work, what about his 27... Qe7? Was there anything else at that point or was it too late already?
