TRANSPOSITION
THREE KTS. OPG. to RUY LOPEZ (Steinitz Def.)

White's QPawn advance to the centre freed his QB and doubled the threat against Black's KP.
Black develops his Queen's Bishop to Q2(d7) to avoid a 5.PxP..PxP recapture that would also exchange queens, and halves a potential QKt-pin. B-Alt.
