King's Pawn Variation
White plans to control the centre by indirect play. Black should have no trouble in equalising.
Black best advances his King's Pawn to K4(e5), taking command of Q5(d4) in the vacant centre and freeing his queen and KB for development. Other replies are inferior as they allow White a greater response. B-Alt.
	White	Black
 1. 	P-KB3	P-K4
