1.e4 d6 2.d4 Nf6 3.Nc3 c6 4.Nf3 Bg4 5.Be2 e6 6.d5 cxd5 7.exd5 e5 8.Qd3 Nbd7 9.Bg5 Be7 10.0-0-0 0-0 11.Bxf6 Nxf6 This is hardly a critical test of the Czech Pirc. Black enjoys the bishop pair, comfortable central control, and a very simple pawn-storm on the queenside to follow. 12.Kb1 Qd7 13.Qe3 a6 14.h3 Bf5 15.g4 Bg6 16.Nh4 b5 Diagram

A very generous draw, considering the simplicity of black's plan to follow. I would take black in this position even if the b5-pawn was removed from the board. 1/2-1/2
