Maybe Junior wanted to protect the knight at c3 with the king because the main line of Movei is Kd1 Bd4 Rf1 Bxc3 bxc3 and 2 pawns at c2 and c3 are not good for white pawn structure but I still think that a king at c3 is a bigger problem. 12 50 170379 252916839 e1d1 f2d4 h1f1 d4c3 b2c3 f8e8 h2h3 g4f6 c1e3 c8d7 e2b2 d7a4 d1e1 b7b6 12 50 172900 256523400 e1d1 f2d4 h1f1 d4c3 b2c3 f8e8 h2h3 g4f6 c1e3 c8d7 e2b2 d7a4 d1e1 b7b6 Uri
