BISHOP'S OPENING
(The) Variation refuting Legall's Mate

White's KKt removed the KP on K5(e5), reversing the Black B attack but leaving White's Q en prise.
Black avoids the "Legall's Mate" trap (5..BxQ) by (best) using his Queen's Pawn to capture White's knight on K4(e5). B-Alt.
    White  Black	White  Black

 2. B-B4   P-Q3
 3. Kt-KB3 B-Kt5?!
 4. Kt-B3  P-KKt3?! Alt.route (Phil.D.)
