    Really good stuff.  Great help.  I especially appreciate your showing the different ways to end the game.  One can sure store up end of game checkmates.

    @DJAbacus: I think there are a lot of ways the game could end after Bxf6, but from what I can see black is toast. Here's two continuations I played out:

    Hi, just to split hairs: Scheveningen is a city in the Netherlands, therefore not in Scandinavia. Named after the 1923 tournament held there, I believe.

    Is it really matters a lot whether we have our N on d5 or not ?

    & is it good for white only or for both side ?if it is good for only white then which square is good for black, e5 ? & if black want to win this game which thing he should focus on as white did on d5 ?

    & I must say both videos are very important.

    Did you know that establishing a Knight on d5 guarantees your chess success? At least that's what some of our predecessors believed. As explained in "immortal" fashion today by FM Liu, a strong Knight can lead to dominance of the entire board. Watch as Smyslov's kingside attack practically develops itself after gripping the center with the d5-beast! Then Smyslov's air-tight technique kicked in, and that was all she wrote...
