this endgame. His P-structure is better than blacks which usually garantes
that you cannot be worse in P-endgames - most often the player with the better

defect in his P-position on the Q-side which makes winning difficult. The a4-P
should have been on a3. Now in case of c3-c4 white has to reckon with the
counter-push a6-a5 often given the black K access to c5. Also with the a-P on
a3 white could create the setup a3-b4-c4 tying the black K down on the K-side
