{c5 & a6 are played the most, but the move looks interesting, especially after
Bd6 , black can counter with e5.} 6. O-O Bd6 7. Nc3 Nb6 8. Bb3 Nbd5 $14 {
Black has moved his knight 3 times to have the d5 square. But counting tempi,
white has 4 developped pieces, black only 3 and white has one pawn in the
centre ! and white is to move... so white stands better.} 9. Re1 (9. e4 $2 Nxc3
