The King plays the Old-Indian defence, and gets to exchange pieces thus getting a solid and passive position that seems playable or at least without any serious weakness. Whites bishop is by no means weak as it has the ability to singelhandedly defend the Queen side while the heavy pieces regroup and prepare the opening pawn break e4-e5, the bishop could make blacks defence against this hard by the threat of Bb5. Seeking a no existing initiative (or maybe kings position bonuses) The King erroneously goes on a rampage on the kings side, helping white advance his pawns. Passive defence is the only way in Old-Indian, black should defend passively making white pay for the e4-e5 advance. Clearly not a good opening for The King. Regards Dan Andersson
