bishop on f2 will assist in the queenside attack for White, while in other
lines it becomes the white king's most valuable protector. However, it is also
a target for a black pawn landing on g3. Black's main strategy is based around
playing /\g5-g4-g3 and he doesn't care if it will cost him a pawn as in return
he will get open lines and outposts for his pieces. Perhaps the most important
piece in the black army is the light-squared bishop. This is because if white
meets /\g4-g3 with h2-h3 then black will be able to sacrifice his bishop to
rip open the white king position.} 13. a4 {I played Korchnoi's idea of 13.a4,
