    This game is a great example of strategy for white in the ruy lopez and shows how to handle the two pawn center when there is pawn tension. Usually you want to keep that tension as long as possible. White keeps his pieces centralized and when black opened up the center completely with ...d5 it was to white's advantage. He ended up getting an extra pawn due to his activity and he played this endgame with near precision as always.
