hehehe..needless to say I have a slightly different take on the position.At least for now.I like your confidence though.Chess is such head game.I misread your move 11.Bb3 for 11.Bd3.In light of this I don't think 11...Nxd4 was the best move for me.Oh well,onward...

i think castling was a mistake on your part. im not sure though...well find out soon enough. i think it left your position open for attack. your knight isquite weak now too.http://forums.civfanatics.com/ubb/wink.gif

(the black knight on f6)http://forums.civfanatics.com/ubb/shoot-em.gif http://forums.civfanatics.com/ubb/smile.gif i think my king is safe where it is, although it is still in the middle. i have terrible pawn cover on each side, but i can castle in a hurry. dont know if youll take my word, but i am not using any chess programs, or helps. i hope you arent either.
