Or perhaps 5. e5 is even stronger. Seams to be a superior version of the 4. Qxd4 hyper accelerated dragon. But I think Black can play 3 ... Bg7 instead of 3 ... cxd4. Now 4. d5 is sort of a Schmid Benoni which may be playable for Black while 3. dc?! Bxc3 just looks bad for White. Moves like 4. Nf3 dc 5. Nxd4 transposes to Dragon Land.

Is it anything wrong with the move order 1. e4 c5 2. Nc3 g6 ?





1.e4 c5 2.Nc3 g6!? 3.d4! cd4 4.Qd4 Nf6 5. Bb5 is already better for white Smiley

Strange enough Rogozenko doesn't cover it in "Anti Sicilians" when he do cover 2 ... Nc6, 2 ... d6 and 2 ... e6.

Is this the preferred move order for Dragon/Acc Dragon players? The nice point is that we can still reach the best defenses against the GPA and Closed, for instance 2. Nc3 g6 3. f4 Nc6! just trasposes. On the contrary 2. Nc3 d6?! 3. f4 is sub optimal for Black.

Or is there some catch?
