thanks
At first the idea of the early Qh4+ seemed kind of wierd to me but white's king seemed severely weakened. The middlegame handling was instructive, especially after Nc4. And the pawn sacrifice was just great! Nice game indeed
good luck in your next games

LOL, one of two things will happen..... I will be Champion and be seriously drunk or I will have just missed out on being champion and be seriously drunk!

Very nice game and Good Luck today!

Nice game indeed! I used to play Benoni as black, and I always felt uncomfortable against the f4-Bb5 system. I used to beat weaker players with Nbd7, but that was on a much lower level than yours. Against stronger players I would invariably get crushed.
Too bad your team did not win the Icelandic Team Ch, but your opponents were really strong. Good Luck in the Reykjavik Open!
(I'm actually watching the live broadcast of your first game right now against GM Halkias, looks tough)

Yes I agree after looking at it a little bit that Nfd7 seems the most solid, the others look a little dodgy at minimum. And yes I was playing live against Halkias....it was a brutal loss for me after defending fairly well...I then couldn't hold an elementary rook ending and lost :-(
