"If you're going through hell, keep going."

(Sir Winston Spencer Leonard Churchill)

I recalled this famous quotation of Sir Winston Churchill recently, when I faced with Black pieces to Drag Sudar from Gambit Chess Club, Nottingham. Last season we had played three times and we were even.This time I played the opening poorly. After 16 moves the game came to the position on the diagram below. Lets have a look how we had proceeded.

It is well known fact that defence is more difficult and in a practical chess game more time consuming than attack. But to find the correct attacking plan may not be always easy.
