The 5....c5 line is interesting but if you are using Marin's book you need look at the 6 Bb5+ line, in particular 9 h3. After 9..cxd4 10 Qxd4 Nc6 he doesn't mention 11 Qa4 which has been played in correspondence a few times. It is tricky and the computer doesn't really understand the potential resulting endgame. Similarly in the same line I'm a little sceptical of his 12...0-0!? N recommendation....I think white can improve on his suggested line and get a good game.
This is good to know. Somehow I suspect black will be fine after 11.Qa4 with accurate play though. Just looking at the position I think black looks flexible enough to warrant not having to come under continuous pressure. Playing the next half a dozen moves or so may not be so easy though.
Edit (this is the line for those who may wonder):
1.e4 d6 2.d4 Nf6 3.Nc3 g6 4.f4 Bg7 5.Nf3 c5 6.e5 Ng4 7.Bb5+ Bd7 8.Bxd7+ Qxd7 9.h3 cxd4 10.Qxd4 Nc6 11.Qa4 Leon_Trotsky wrote on 07/14/19 at 18:52:13:
Are you talking about 6...Cbd7 against the Austrian Attack ¿ On the 6. Ae3 line he gives 6...b6 which is the main line. In Davies book, he gives I think 6...Cbd7, which is less crazy. Both sides need to know what they are doing in these lines though.
6.Bd3 Nbd7 sure.
6.Be3 b6 Is mainline-ish and a pretty expected recommendation even if it has some dangers as well.

I remember few years ago I played 6. Ae3 b6 against an attacking player, and he basically collapsed before move 15 because he had no idea what he was doing
Haha. Having played 6.Be3 a bit I sympathise with the white player

Did you see the extra database in his 2th DWD on 5...0-0 6. Ad3 Ca6 ¿ I would prefer to play that than the weird 6...Cbd7. Those files were very interesting, I remember there was this concept where White puts his bitchop on c4, Marin gave some lines where Black springs with ...Cb4, then if a3 simply leaves it en prise and develops, since ...axb4 cxb4 attacks both White's pieces on c3 and c4.

Did you also check the included databases with analysis on the Marin DVD? I believe in many of the critical lines he has more analysis there than he presents in the short video clips. There was a backup line against 6.Bd3 in the Austrian in the database, for one thing.
Yer. Quickly. Although the games did not look so current tbh and I've only played:
1.e4 d6 2.d4 Nf6 3.Nc3 g6 4.f4 Bg7 5. Nf3 0-0 6.Bd3 Na6 7.0-0 c5 8.d5 Bg4 in blitz.
Have a nice day.
