One can easily guess that this position
arose from a long King's indian struggle.
White has lost the exchange but he has
a p a w n , m o r e s p a c e a n d a s t r o n g
initiative in return. Now Black wants to
d e v e l o p h i s p i e c e s a n d g e t s o m e
counterchances after White's bishop
goes away. Is there any way to stop this
plan?
