📘 23.f4?
The white's rush to launch a kingside attack costs him the game.
It would have been better to improve the knight's position to d3 via b2-square.

Great stuff! White declares a fight back on the key light squares. He prepares f3 to cover the e4 square, while the re-routing of the knight via e2 is surprisingly rich in prospects.
15.Bf1?! Bxf1 16.Kxf1 Ne4 Black is better.

Tarrasch left us one of the wisest bits of advice: It’s not what is removed from the board that matters, but what remains. After the exchange on e5, the bishop on g7 becomes impotent.
