Bd3 d5 {It is hardly logical to develop the Bishop on the long diagonal and immediately after that to close it with d5 and in addition White's square on e5 now becomes very strong. The usual line 5...c5 is doubtless better.} 6. Ne5 Bd6 7. f4 Nbd7 8.

The following sacrifice is ingenious, but by tyhe right answer (the 14th move of White) is proved insufficient.} 12. fxe5 Nxe5 {If 12...Ne4 then simply 13.O-O Ng5 14.Qe3 h6 15.h4 Nh7 16.Qf2, etc., with a tremendous position for White.} 13. dxe5 d4 14.
