Well, that's the first game and I'm sure you'll agree that the knights were the stars of the show in that one. They can really have a field day in the Benoni if the conditions are right and they can acquire some good outpost squares.

In the second game my White opponent threw down the Giuoco Pianissimo. Thanks to a trip-up by my adversary I managed to win a pawn and also my knight became dangerously active and was assisted by the Queen in harassing the White king. It came to an ending and my play wasn't the most precise but it was good enough. I thought the knight maneuver f5-d4-e6-f4 was the nicest thing about the game.

The third game was an Evans Gambit. I thought my opponent played the opening pretty solidly and I didn't have much but my position was ok and there was some attack potential as well. Thanks to an inaccuracy by my opponent a tactical opportunity presented itself and Blacks king was suddenly in a lot of danger. The White fianchettoed bishop became a very powerful attacking unit during the attack.

I hoped you enjoyed the games. A pretty lucky string of successful attacking games.
