RUY LOPEZ - Berlin Def.
Mortimer Trap
Black's 5..P-QB3 closed a two-edged trap by freeing his Q and attacking White's light bishop.
White's Knight on K5(e5) moves (best) across to QB4(c4) to prevent 6..Q-R4+ch and support 7.P-K5. Black will now either gain the initiative or lose in two, depending on his next move! W-Alt.
