Variation (3.Bb5+ after 2...d6 is the Moscow Variation) was also a favorute of

Bxc6.} g6 {This is the most popular reply although 3...Nc6 and sometimes 3...
e6 are played.} 4. O-O Bg7 5. c3 a6 {Unusual. The thematic move is 6.Bxc6} 6.

acceptable.} 9. cxd4 Nxd4 10. Nxd4 exd4 11. f4 {A rather harmless looking
