    A bad move - it does not bring out a
    piece or allow a bishop or queen to
    come out - it even opens the h5-e8
    line to the king - often dangerous!

    White cannot take this pawn - black
    has 2 pieces defending it and white
    has only 2 pieces attacking it .. but the
    pawn is PINNED to the king - an
    ABSOLUTE PIN - it cannot move - so
    attack it with something else.

    9 h4!
    Be7

    10 hxg5+
    Double check - from the pawn on g5
    and the rook on h1 - the most forcing
    tactic you can play - the king MUST
    move if it can.

    This is a RELATIVE PIN - the knight
    can move but it will allow black to
    take the queen

    4 Nc3
    h6?
    This pawn move wastes TIME. It does
    not attack anything and does not help
    protect the centre. Also bad here
    would be 4... g6 or 4... a6 or 4... b6.
    Much better is 4... Nf6 or 4... c6.
