It has been covered. In fact it came up in a poll several years ago on "missing variations" that needed to be included.

Try searching for "Psakhis AND Romanishin" on the main site and you will find it.

Btw. I think the critical line is 6.a3 Ba5 7.Rb1 Na6 8.g3 Bb7 9.d5 (or 8.d5 Bb7 9.g3) - I would look at that first if you intend to play this with Black.


7. g3 is problematic as well.

Unexplored line in Nimzo - Ne2

Hi, I'm interested in a Nimzo-line for black and, for my surprise, it's not covered in the chesspubs files!! The line goes 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Bb4 4.e3 b6 5.Ne2 c5!? with the idea a3 Ba5! and suddenly white has some problems with his pieces. What do you think about this setup? I would like to see that stuff in future updates  Smiley
