This is a turn-based game I played against demetrios18. We discussed the game briefly after we finished, and he asked me to post it. I included annotations based on thoughts from both myself and my opponent. Any input appreciated.
22...Nde4 allows 23. Nxg6+! Kg8 24. Qc4+ Nd5 25. Ne7+ Kf8 26. Nxd5, when your queen is threatened. I guess you could try 26...Qxb2 27. Rf1, but it doesn't look too good.
22. Ne4 is bad as gabrielconroy explained. Ne4 on moves 20 or 21 should've worked.
Isnt the N/e7 misplaced in the modern benoni ? I think it would be more useful on f6 attacking the p/e4 and allowing a rook on e8 to do the same...
Yep. Nf6 is the standard move. demetrios18 is the only person I've seen who plays Ne7 in that position.
NICE~
