John Manages His Time Well | Standard Chess

In the Semi-Tarrasch-like structure that arises out of this English Opening (e4+d4 pawn duo for White, a+b queenside majority for Black), my opponent player has a solid yet passive position. I therefore avoid trades with an eye toward the thematic d4-d5 central pawn break. Good time management (yes, really!) and an errant Black knight on h5 soon leads to a golden opportunity.
