BARNES OPENING
(The) Transpositional Variation
White plans to control the centre by indirect play. Black should have no trouble in equalising.
Black develops his King's Knight to KB3(f6) to pressure White's K4(e4). Inferior to contesting White's K4(e4) directly by 2..P-Q4, it is only played for transpositional purposes. B-Alt.
	White	Black
 1. 	P-KB3	Kt-KB3
WHITE to Move or Undo or Jump or Clear
