White can't decide whether to use this knight for attack or defence, and doesn't get his queenside play going soon enough.} c6 13.O-O Ng6 14.Ng3 {After this White will always have to worry about a knight coming into e4 or h4.} Re8 15.Qc5 {This just loses time, since Black's queen is just as close to the kingside on d8, while White's queen will have to retreat.} Qd8 16.Nd2 {Heading for the queenside to aid his attack there, but allowing Black's knight a great attacking square.} Nh4 17.b4 a6 18.a4 Bd7 19.Rb1 Ng4 {Yipe.

White only sees one of the threats, but he's long gone anyway.} 28.Bb5 Qf3 0-1 [Event "Federal Republic of Germany"] [Site "?"] [Date "1988.??.??"] [Round "?"] [White "Andruet"] [Black "Spassky"] [Result "0-1"] [PlyCount "56"] 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 Bb4+ 4.Bd2 Bxd2+ 5.Qxd2 d5 6.Nc3 O-O 7.e3 Qe7 8.Rc1 Rd8 9.Qc2 {White aims for pressure on c7, but he lets Black get his knights to strong squares on the kingside.} Nbd7 10.cxd5 exd5 11.Bd3 Nf8 12.Ne2 {The beginning of a dubious maneuver.
