Thanks tony for your inputs . I agree about 32..Kg8.

What do you think about 5.h3 ,8.a3 and 10.d4 ?

5.h3 - avoiding pin by c8 bishop.

8.a3 - Did not want to exchange my white bishop after black's Na5 .

10.d4 - to break the center.

It looked more to me like h3 was to play Be3 without having to worry about Ng4.  I don't much like P-R3 moves that early anyway...although a3 has a better reason behind it (to save your bishop).  On the other hand, after you play d4 it's no longer in jeopardy (but you might want to keep it on that diagonal anyway).  Then again, openings aren't exactly my forte...

Thanks tony.

If I don't play h3 - then what is the best move -

i was thinking of moving 5.d3.I was fearing 5.d3 Bg4 6.Be3 Nd4

Now I have to exchange my black bishop with black's knight or get ready for disruption of kingside pawn structure.

From your comments ,it seems I could have avoided a3 .That will help me in my future games,I hope.

Thanks yeres for your post.That is quite educational.I have read your post a few times - will take some time for me to digest.

I have never played  9.Bd3 - since I think it suppresses white's black Bishop.But it seems I can still develop it after playing b3 and placing it on long diagonal.
