Mar 7, 2015 at 17:39 comment added ETD Some of the games from Nimzovich's book Chess Praxis should exemplify this approach. In fact, there's a list of the games from that book at chessgames.com that includes helpful indicators of specific games that feature overprotection prominently. To get the most out of them, you'd probably want to get the book itself in order to have Nimzovich's annotations. (While I'm at it, my answer on a previous thread touches on these matters too, and gives a recent Caruana game as an example.)

Mar 7, 2015 at 17:28 comment added stud Thanks ETD . This might be a bit too much but do you by any chance have links to games employing this strategy ?
Mar 7, 2015 at 17:24 comment added ETD @antonio, I added what I think that is trying to get at (though in any case I personally wouldn't have worded things exactly the way they are in that entry).
