It's interesting that in the 7...Qc7 line, Jacimovic and Zlatanovic, who opt for solid variations in other cases, recommend going for a pawn snatch: 8.h5 cxd4 9.cxd4 Qxc3+ 10.Bd2 Qxd4 11.Nf3 Qe4+ 12.Be2 Nf5. In contrast, Miedema strongly opposes this approach in his The Modernized French Defence Volume 1, saying, "Quite a lot of games have been played in this line, but I feel it's just too hard for humanoids playing Black...I know French players like you and me like to suffer a great deal from time to time, but only when we really have to...Please don't play this."

I'll mention books, not in my possesion, on the Winawer.

The Modern French, Volume 2: Advance and Winawer by  Dmitry Kryakvin, Nov 03, 2020, proposes the Portisch-Hook variation.

When Magnus plays the Winawer Poisoned Pawn the world should take note

Another game with 16...f6 from last night:



24 Be3? and 25 Be2?? were losing moves – of course I missed the tactic. Instead, the king should have gone to f2, when White may well be winning. Even so, the game is a nice addition to the theory.

Well, if the opponent doesn't play the Winckelmann-Reimer Gambit then Black is guaranteed easy equality. 

It's no use pointing this out to LDZ. He will only endlessly repeat his mantra. It's better to ask him a question:

Have you already found good ways to meet 6...c5 and especially 6...Bd7? It was nice how you showed White's compensation after 6...b6 7.Bb5+, but this obviously doesn't work after 6...Bd7. I am looking forward to your answer in that WRG-thread.
This one is about the Winawer Poisoned Pawn, which doesn't begin with 4.a3, and especially about books on the WPP.

Fritz this, Rybka that... Pfft... You can't use a computer to help you in an online or over-the-board game. And the Winckelmann-Reimer Gambit, 1 d4 d5 2 e4 e6 3 Nc3 Bb4 4 a3 Bxc3+ 5 bxc3 dxe4 6 f3!
looks good to me. It creates interesting play.  In OTB chess, where you cannot use a computer to help, it certainly offers good chances.

Thanks for sharing so generously, Jon.  Yes, a lot more practice is needed before all this can be clarified, which could be said of the Winawer in general!
