8 Bb2 Nd7 9 Nd2 Ne7 Exercise: What is White’s best way to proceed? (difficulty level 2) Joel: White’s advantage is temporary. He needs to find ways to speed up his development and cannot allow Black time to untangle himself. White has a bad bishop as does Black. Black’s good bishop, which prevents White from using the c4-square with his knight, is active and well placed. Therefore, 10 Bh3 accomplishes many objectives. Bxh3 seems forced, otherwise White will take and double Black’s pawns with a lasting advantage in the endgame.
