e4 Qe8 12. Qe2 Na5 {Master play has few examples of the Wyvill formation with
Black's c-pawn unmoved. The reason is obvious: the advance of Black's c-pawn
is usually the only way of forcing White to push his d-pawn to d5. Only under
very exceptional circumstances will he do it voluntarily} 13. a4 $2 { An
instructive mistake, after which Black can force White's Pd5} (13. Nf1 { With
his c-pawn thus secured, White could have set about preparing Kingside
operations}) 13... Qe6 $1 14. d5 Qg4 15. f3 Qh4 16. O-O Nh5 $1 {Even now
White' s best chance would be to force Pf4, and Black's maneuvers are directed
against this possibility} 17. Nf5 Qg5 18. Bc1 (18. h4 Qd8 19. g3 g6) 18... Nf4
19. Bxf4 exf4 {Strategically Black's superiority seems overwhelming. He has
support points at a5, c5 and e5, and White has the bad Bishop. Even so, the
realisation of these advantages is far from simple} 20. Nd4 Rfe8 21. Nb5 (21.
Rfb1 -- 22. Nb3) 21... Bxb5 22. cxb5 {The characteris tic doubled pawn of the
Wyvill formation has gone, but White's strategic problems have not gone with
it.} 22... Qf6 23. Ra3 Re5 24. Qd2 Rh5 25. g3 Rg5 26. Kf2 $1 Qh6 27. Kg2 Rh5 (
