	There's the following interesting thread: http://www.chesspub.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1123590850;start=all but I believe there's some even better analyis somewhere in the depths of past 1.e4... posts, but I couldn't find it right now, but for a start have a look at pages 4-5 of this article by Stefan Bücker, where he quotes some analysis and games by me: http://www.chesscafe.com/text/kaiss08.pdf

	4.d4 Nf6 5.Nf3 Bf5 6.Ne5 c6 (btw Black's setup does not stem from Wahls; he has written a book on it) 7.Bc4 e6 8.g4 is White's sharpest option. There are some move order issues.

	The book had the effect good books usually have: it made the stupids more stupid, the intelligent more intelligent and the other thousands of readers remained unchanged. GC Lichtenberg

	Presupposing that black plays the Wahls setup (Bf5, e6, c6), what do you consider to be the best white line against it? My understanding so far is, that 1) d4, Nf3, Bc4, Bd2, Qe2, 0-0-0 (often threatening Nd5 or d5,) and 2) 7.Ne5 + 8.g4 + 9.h4 etc. do very well (according to the Megabase White scores in these variations 62/38 %, 64/36 % with nearly equal Elo`s of White and Black). What`s your opinion?
