Caro-Kann 4…Bf5; 11.Bd2[B19]

White has the better structure to work with. White do you recommend for white now?


White to Play


30..Rd7


Position 2
The long endgame massage has been going well for white, but black has had some defensive success too. The kingside pawns have been liquidated and the defensive front has been narrowed. What do you suggest for white now?

54..ab
