After 1. d4 d5 2. c2 e6 3. Nc3 Nf6 4. Bg5 Be7 5. e3 0-0 6. Nf3 c5, what then?
This 6 ... c5 is not mentioned in any opening books so is it just a blunder? However I can't found a clear refutation by analysis. After 7. cd Nxd5 8. Bxe7 Qxe7 9. Nxd5 ed black's position looks playable to me after either 10. dc Qxc5 or 10. Be2 c4!?. And 7. dc dc seams not to give white anything substantial either. So if 6 ... c5 can't be refuted why is it not played?

Hi,

I believe White would play as in your first line, and then 11. Rc1.  For instance, 11...Qb4+ 12. Qd2 Qxd2+ 13. Kxd2 looks clearly better for White.  Maybe Black does better with e.g. 11...Qd6, but Black is taking on an isolated pawn in a position in which several pieces will have been traded off (generally a dubious proposition).
