The absence of the traditional d2-d3 and Nb1-c3 moves brings some peculiarities to the position. In general, White's plan will be to try to make the d2-d4 advance all at once (without placing the pawn on d3). 6... d5b6 A good move, preventing d2-d4. 7. b2b3  7... c8e6 [%c_effect e6;square;e6;type;Interesting;persistent;true] Starting an aggressive plan with castling on the queenside. 8. c1b2  8... f7f6  9. b1c3  9... d8d7  10. a1c1  10... e8c8  11. d1c2 [%c_effect c2;square;c2;type;GreatFind;persistent;true] The best idea, preparing Rfd1 and a possible d2-d4. Black has several interesting moves now and this is a critical position of the game. 11... b6d5 [%c_effect d5;square;d5;type;Mistake;persistent;true] A new move that allows White to take the initiative.
