Dacha Tactics #41 - another smooth dark knockout!
Here, the material is equal, with a slightly more compact pawn structure for black. And how's the color $? The imbalance is knight vs light bishop, which means we are behind on light but ahead on dark. This should serve us well on d4. Also, with the queens facing
Dacha Tactics #40 - smooth dark knockout!
