8. Be2 |
As white, I might have tried a3 and followed up with b4 in hopes of trading or possibly making the c5 pawn move. With the c5 pawn gone or moved, white gain play d4 and lock the center up more. | |||||

8... Nc6 |
attacks e5 pawn again and prevents the immediate advances of white's b or d pawns | |||||

|
9. Nb5 |
adds two defenders to the d4 square if white wishes to push the d-pawn but my opponent is probably thinking of entrenching his knight at d6 | |||||

I would have preferred Nd6, but my opponent seems to be wanting to play c4 | |||||

11... d4 |
blocks bishop from guarding e-pawn so I can take it with one of my knights, keeps white's d-pawn from advancing to support e-pawn, and opens up the diagonal more for my fianchettoed bishop. If c4, I take e.p. attacking his bishop and if the bishop takes my pawn then b4 forks the knight and bishop. | |||||
