10...¤e5 11.¤xc3 Strategically a very
interesting position, and one of
considerable importance for theory.
White can boast the bishop pair, the
open a-file, and the potential weakness
of black's pawn on d5. In the latter
connection the possibility of
manouevering a rook to d4, where the b5
pawn affords it unusual tranquility should
be borne in mind. Black has an active
knight on d5, good development, and the
move with which he can decide on which
of white's minor plusses to concentrate.

weakness, but it is instructive how

19...¥b5 20.¢f2 This is the sort of

the psychological effect of finding himself

initiative later. ¦c8 21.b3 Stopping the
entry of one rook, but weakening the
bishop on c3! ¦e4! As I discussed in the
strategy column, such a sacrifice has a
powerful psychological element since it
completely changes the nature of the

to solving practical problems, with the
risk of losing back on the agenda.
