⚪️ #14 (Strategy - White To Move)

📕🔹#14

1.Bd2! Tying down the rook to the а5-pawn. White’s idea is simple: he is strengthening his position by transferring his bishop
to с3 and his rook to е1, thus creating the threat of the unpleasant maneuver Ne4-g3-h5 (T.Petrosian).
In the actual game, the future champion of the world completely succeeded – partly as a result of his opponent’s weak
resistance whose actions were passive and haphazard. 🔹
