Thanks for your reply, nestor. I find that a bit strange, because 10...Qb4 is the favourite of Perunovic, and Stockfish thinks it is equal to 10...d6. I would have liked to know the reason for Karolyi's preference. I think I will ask him on Facebook.

I have asked Karolyi and he will respond in a few days.

Maybe 12. ...d6 instead of taking on b2 is more solid.

Yes, 12...d6 seems to be Perunovic's preferred choice.

Interesting, I would be interested in the reason for that as well. It has to be said, though, that 10. ...Qb4 does seem a bit risky. At least the lines after
11.Bxa6 Nxa6 12.Qe2 Qxb2 13.Rb1 Qa3 14.e5 Ne8 15.Rb3 Qa5 16.0-0 must be very pleasant for White, no?

Karolyi only covers 10...d6, and he concludes that White is better with best play. He doesn't even mention 10...Qb4 as a possibility.

In New in Chess Yearbook 135 there is a survey bij Karolyi on the Perunovic Benko. In Yearbook 136 he "addresses the ramifications of the main line 8.Nf3". Can anybody tell me if, after 6.Nc3 Bg7 7.e4 0-0 8.Nf3 Qa5 9.Bd2 Bxa6 10.Be2, Karolyi prefers 10...Qb4 or 10...d6 ?
