📘 54...Kf7??
There are three reasons that the Black king has been placed in an improper position:
1- The f-file has blocked for the Black rook.
2- Black will also lose a tempo with the sequence e6.
3- The king moves away from h6-pawn and gives a tactical opportunity to the opponent.

The position of the black pawn on b6 is important for assessing the position because its advance has weakened the light squares on the queenside.
