Commentary for white move 29:

YASSER SEIRAWAN: I just put an image here of some threatened squares. What we have in this program is the ability to show the squares that each side is attacking. And it's kind of hard to see it, but white should be attacking more things than black.

MIKE VALVO: Yeah.

YASSER SEIRAWAN: Well, thanks, Mike, that was --

MIKE VALVO: That he was very inspirational.

YASSER SEIRAWAN: That was great support there.

YASSER SEIRAWAN: Another question from the audience --

AUDIENCE MEMBER: Another move.

YASSER SEIRAWAN: Do we have a move? Nd6. Okay. Well, Garry actually moved quite quickly. And he's very happy because he got to reposition his knight from the f6 square to the d6 square. The knight is much more useful on the d6 square. But, still, white keeps his edge in space. And also I might just point out that Garry's last move introduced a trick. After axb5, the move axb5 is no longer an automatic decision. Consideration can be given for the move Nxb5 so that after Rxa6 Nxc3 --

MIKE VALVO: It becomes possible.

YASSER SEIRAWAN: It becomes a possibility with the night jumping out into white's camp. So the move Nd6, happily played, and Garry looks a little bit happier. We have a question? Do we have a question?

AUDIENCE MEMBER: Yeah. Back one and a half moves.

YASSER SEIRAWAN: Back, you want to say three ply?

AUDIENCE MEMBER: Yeah.

YASSER SEIRAWAN: Okay. This position? Or forward one?

AUDIENCE MEMBER: All right, this position. What about a5 for black?
