I seem to recall that Yusupov annotated an interesting game in Dvoretsky's Positional Play.  I think he was White and Black lost, but the game and its general plan prompted me to give it a try otb (many years ago)...

Hi Markovich,
I think Mikhail Marin has played it before...  I also rememeber reading that Nigel Davies was also interested in it.  But really isn't it just a "poor mans" KID???
cheers,
Zatara

This defense caught my attention recently, and I wonder if anyone has any experience with it.  I know the names of its few high-level practioners, but I'm just curious to know who here knows much about it, and also, how to play against it?

My own notes include the system with Bg5, e3 and Qc2, but it only ever came up in one of my games, which was a very early draw.
