Reti vs The Reversed Benoni 3.g3 Nc6-TWIC 758

TWIC 958
The Modern Reti
The Reti Opening is now getting some much needed analysis.

The Modern Reti by GM Delchev(Chess Stars 2012)

The Reti-Slav 1...d5 2.c4 d4 Reversed Benoni
This is a very important line to be familiar with for battling the Reti and according to Delchev, 

'It is the most unpleasant retort to 2.c4'-Delchev(p.26).

This is the subject of the feature game.


2...d4

GM Neiksans took some risks in a patient maneuvering game with the following middlegame themes,

  • Maneuvering in an equal position
  • King walk in the middlegame
  • Better pawn structure
  • The knight as a maneuvering force
  • QBN-QBB
  • QN-QB(good N vs bad B)
Here is the feature game.

Position 1
White has been patiently maneuvering around with the nimble knight and better structure to work with. How should white continue?
