12...a6
[ Black would be safer by 12...Bxd2
exchanging his Bishop for the Knight, even though by doing so he brings the White Rooks more quickly into action. Then might come ...a6, followed duly by ...Ne7 and ...Nc6. White would still have fine opportunities for attack, but he would find the defense more difficult to negotiate than appears at first sight.]

[ A reversal of moves now proves at once fatal. He should have retreated the Bishop by 14...Bf8
