The question, however, was whether this would be so bad for White. } (12.

Qd2 $14 { The point is that Black still cannot push ...e6-e5 due to the g4 knight's lack of escape squares. As such, White has nothing to worry about, and has play against the weakened dark squares around Black's king. }) 12... Nde5 13. gxf7+ Qxf7 14. Qe2 Nxe3 15. fxe3 Bd7 16. O-O-O O-O-O 17. Bh3 Be7 18.
