This second game shows exactly what white needs to do to wipe out black's solid position. I believe when white plays Qc2 and Rc1, it's called the rubinstein attack. By avoiding Bd3, he delays the loss of a tempo, hoping that black makes a passive waiting move. Black indeed does this, and sets up an a6, b5, c6 complex but he never achieves his pawn breaks due to inaccurate play. What happened was this complex became weak instead of dynamic and it was attacked the rest of the game. I have looked at different lines in pawn structures in the QG in the alternatives early on in the game.
