	Hi. Parimarjan Negi, once the saviour of 1.e4 players trying to get an opening advantage, should have some lines on the Non-Maroczy Accelerated dragon. At least if I recall correctly. Will check. Have a nice day.

	8...d5 appeared a couple of times in Chess Publishing in 2017-2018. In 2020, the rebooted yellow ECO had it as leading to a slight advantage for White. (Back in 1993, Silman and Donaldson in their AD book considered it "tricky but inadequate.")

Sorry if off-topic, but with White uncastled, doesn't 7...0-0 8. Bb3 d5 exist in this position? Computers show super fun lines like:
9. exd5 Na5 10. Qf3 Bg4 11. Qg3 Nxb3 12. axb3 Bh5 13. d6 Ng4! and for instance 14. h3 Nxe3 15. fxe3 a6! (ensures the Bh5 can take the Nd4 if it retreats) 16. Qh4 (diagram):

White has ominous threats like g4 and dxe7, but Black stays equal after 16...e5 17. Nf5 Bf6 18. Ne7+ Qxe7 19.Qxh5 Qxd6

Yes it's seems ok for Black. Have a look at the blitz! Oparin - DUbov Moscow 2015 : 7.Bc4 0-0 8.Bb3 d5 9.exd5 Na5 10.Nf3 b6

	Agree with MNb. D is a clear improvement on C. Also if white goes Bc4-b3 and O-O (instead of O-O-O) then black has needed to play neither ...Qa5 nor ...a7-a5 like in A and B.

	The best option for Black is D) 7...O-O 8.Bb3 d6 9.f3 Bd7 playing a Yugoslav Attack with White having played an early Bb3.

	Hi Dragonners. Let's say we "forced" white to play the moves : 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 g6 3.d4 cxd 4.Nxd4 Bg7 5.Nc3 Nc6 6.Be3 Nf6 7.Bc4 i see 3 options for Black A/ ... Qa5 8.0-0 slightly better for White B/... 0-0 8.Bb3 a5 9.00 slightly for White C/ ... d6 8.f3 0-0 9.Qd2 the real Bc4 Dragon, what is the best option for Black and why in your opinion ? Thanks
