	I much prefer Black in your main line, and I doubt that 13.c3 is how White should play. Your idea is interesting. Have you considered 9...Bg4?

	Post members here and on chess.com have argued that in the main line of the 4.Ng5 variation that White must fight to equalize after 4.Ng5 d5 5.exd5 Na5 6.Bb5ch c6 7.dxc6 bxc6 8.Qf3---The general belief is that after 8...Be7! that White does pretty poorly after 9.Be2 & Bd3 looks drawish. Other variations (h6, Rb8 and Qc7) than 8...Be7 have been dealt with elsewhere There is one idea that hasn't been tried---a transposition to an Evans Gambit i.e. 8.Qf3 Be7 9.b4! Bxb4 10.Bxc6ch Nxd6 11.Qxc6ch Bd7 12.Qc4 Qe7 13.c3 Bd6 14.Ne4 Nxe4 15.Qxe4 In this unbalanced position White has a protected passed pawn and Black the Bishops
