Bb2 From here i can see White has a plan on kingside attack e5 13. Qd3 Nd7 14. Qg3 exf4 15. Rxf4 Ne5 16. Raf1 Be6 17. Nd1 f6 18. Ne3 Ng6 19. Nf5 a5 20. Rg4 Bd8 21. Rxg6 hxg6 22. Qxg6 a4 23. Bd3 Bxf5 24. Qxf5 g6? In this move I feel it was dangerous to open it up as White has active Rook, Queen & Bishops targeting at h7 & g7 square respectively.
