The topic of the article is the new idea 13.Qc5+! in the well-known Panov Variation 1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.exd5 cxd5 4.c4 Nf6 5.Nc3 Nc6 6.Nf3 Bg4 7.cxd5 Nxd5 8.Qb3 Bxf3 9.gxf3 e6 10.Qxb7 Nxd4 11.Bb5+ Nxb5 12.Qc6+ Ke7.
Black has several options to choose from. He must decide whether he wants to try to hold on to the extra material or not. Robert Ris analyses the continuations A) 13...Kf6, B) 13...Qd6, C) 13...Ke8 and D) 13...Nd6.
Ris: “The piece sacrifice 13.Qc5+ potentially leads to incredibly sharp and fun positions to play for White and are certainly more exciting than the famous endgame line in the Panov Variation of the Caro-Kann. However, like in almost every opening nowadays, with precise play Black is doing fine objectively speaking in more than one line. Still, in a practical game I'd take White any time of the day. Speaking from my own experience and evaluating grandmaster play, it's fair to say that Black is the one who has to be very careful not making the wrong step in this minefield.”
