4.c4 (3:32) bxc4 (0:24) 5.Bxc4 (0:19) d5 (0:15) 6.Bd3 (0:55) e6 (0:59)
AsDaGo(1784) whispers: Black would like to play c5 at some point before the c-pawn becomes a weakness
morphology(2005) whispers: yes perhaps now would be best after all...
7.O-O (3:23)
morphology(2005) whispers: except its not blacks turn lol
7...c5 (0:53) 8.Nc3 (2:45)
AsDaGo(1784) whispers: Now c4 is interesting, but that weakens the light-squared bishop
morphology(2005) whispers: yes I was thinking about that a lot too
8...Nc6 (2:28) 9.Qa4 (3:17)
AsDaGo(1784) whispers: Hmm, this just helps Black develop (Bd7)
9...Bd7 (0:25) 10.Qc2 (2:16)
AsDaGo(1784) whispers: Nb4

AsDaGo(1784) whispers: This gains space, but also closes the position which favors the knights
AsDaGo(1784) whispers: I liked cxd4 better
AsDaGo(1784) whispers: Black's light-squared bishop is essentially useless now

AsDaGo(1784) whispers: Black should move the queen so he doesn't lose the bishop pair to Ne5
18...Bb4 (2:39)
AsDaGo(1784) whispers: Although losing the bad bishop might not be so bad
