Veresov
1 d4 d5 2 Nc3 Nf6 3 Bg5 Nbd7 4 f3 h6 now when I was a subscriber, I believe I remember seeing that the e-book that covered the Veresov had 5 Bxf6 leading to an advantage for White, is this correct?

The Veresov
I just picked up Nigel Davies' excellent book "The Veresov".  It's a great introduction.  I'm interested in using this opening against queen's pawn defenses.  Does anyone have any good web-links where...

Veresov 3....h6 4. Bf6:, ef6
