I checked i Megabase 2012 and indeed the move 5...Be7 looks simple and strong ( after: 1.e4-e5 2.Nf3-Nf6 3.Bc4-Nxe4 4.Qh5-Nd6 5.Bb3) It`s also mentioned by Oliver Renet back in 2002 in the theory section... REALLY makes me wonder what the antidote is in the coming book from Chess Stars ( "The modern Vienna"). Makes me wonder indeed... Ben Edit: P.s: Maybe it`s also worth saying that Or Cohhen in his: "A vigorous chess opening repertoire for black" is giving excactly the 5...Be7 line. He`s giving the game: Anand-Ivanchuk, Roquebrune (rpd) 1992 which ended with a "lucky draw" for Anand, according to the author. D.s.

I always had the impression that the Dracula is toothless after 5...Be7- no? No after 15...Qxg5 16.Nxg5 Bh6 Black is doing fine, good to hear you have faith in 35 year old analysis though, even if it was by the great man.

	Ok I see now, this is the difference that makes ...Qe7 better, thanks!

	Well, I see that some books have regarded 8...Qf6 9. Nxc7+ Kd8 10. Nxa8 b6 11. d4 or 11. Nxb6 ab 12. d4 as favorable for White.

	Hello people, I am currently studying this fascinating line and I don't understand why the main line goes with ...Qe7 instead of ...Qf6. Trying to understand what could be the differences, so far I see that after ...Qf6 in the line with 11. d3 Bb7 12.h4, white will have a very difficult game after 12...Ne7 that of course black cannot play with the queen on e7. I guess things can't be that easy and I should miss something... thanks in advance for your comments
