Interesting GPA sideline
Last night in blitz I ran across this idea, which I'd never see before:
1.e4 c5 2.Nc3 Nc6 3.f4 g6 4.Nf3 Bg7 5.Be2 e6 6.d4!? cd 7.Nb5. I guess the main idea is 7...d5 8.e5, though Black is still ... Started 05/03/06 at 15:05:04 by ErictheRed |

French setup against the GPA
In the Flank Openings Section, 1.f5 c5 thread, it has become clear, that after 1.f4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 White's best is 3.e4. Then Bladez and Ostapbender seem to think, that e6 gives Black equality.
