[Event "?"] [Site "?"] [Round "0"] [White "Eliskases"] [Black "Spielmann"] [Result "1-0"] [ECO "A40"] [Opening "Queen's Pawn: 1...e6 2.c4"] {Illustrating the well-know rule that a flank attack has little chance of success if one exercises no influence in the centre} 1. d4 e6 2. c4 Nf6 3.

Rac1 c6 17. e4 {In this position Black can exert no pressure on White's centre; his pieces - especially the Rook and Knight on the Rook files - are very poorly placed. To justify the position of Rh5, Black will have to attempt a direct attack on White's King, but this is problematic as White's central dominance allows him to maneuver his pieces rapidly, whether for attack or defence of any threatened sector.} 17...
