    the Super GM's dont write books because their competitors will use it.

    IF a strong GM writes a book (like Bauer) then I guess he does not use it in serious games.

    7...h5?!  8. Qg4! +/=

    Your move (this is fun)-

    I think you should use a chessboard : YOU played 7.Qg4 , I answered 7....h5, now you queen MUST LEAVE g4.

     

    Correct you are I meant 8. Qf4

    Darn you're right, that aggressive stuff on the kingside for Black with ...h5 and ...g5 does seem like it maintains the balance
