    Ok bud, I'm not so sure about that. Tell you what, we can put it to the test. I'll take the Black position after 9...h5. you send me your moves, and I'll keep this post up to date. I'll post a graphic of the chessbaord here, so if anyone is interested they can follow along. No need to rush through this, take your time, it may take a few days to get through this.

    Here is the game so far.

    White: Bilbo

    2.Nf3 Nc6
    3.Bc4 Bc5
    4.d3 d6
    5.Nc3 Nf6
    6.Bg5 h6
    7.Bxf6 gxf6
    8.Nd5 Be6
    9.Qd2 h5
    10.b4 Bb6
    11.a4 Nd4
    12.Nxd4 Bxd4
    13.c3 c6
    14.cxd4 cxd5

    OK, for those who are following the thread, Bilbo and I are playing out a position from brucelee's victory over his computer. Bilbo is playing brucelee's side, I am playing the computer's side. The first move to deviate from brucelee's game was 10.b4 by Bilbo.

    White is up a pawn, and the Black king is a little vulnerable, which limits Black's options. Probably White has the advantage, but Black is not without resources.

    Subsequent updates to the game will be made by editing this post, probably a couple more moves today.

    Update: OK, we are calling this off. We discussed it and agree that 9...h5 is not a good move, at the very least not at this time. Sooner, or later, it's a different story that would have to be reconsidered.
