Attacking the King's Indian

Attacking the King's Indian

In round 4 of the Vezerkepzo 2022 May Grandmaster tourney I played with Tamás Tancsa a talanted young player from Hungary. You can check his chess.com games at https://www.chess.com/member/tomivezer2007


He played the King's indian defense with Nbd7, e5, c6. I played d4-d5 to gain space and he locked the center by c6-c5. I decided to play g4 to meet f7-f5 with exchanges on f5 and use the g-file and the center control to attack. He has a chance to equalize by giving up his dark bishop for the c3 knight. Later the white pieces became very active:
