PHILIDOR'S DEFENCE
(The) Side Variation
Black's QP push defended his KP and freed his QB.
White's Pawn to QB3(c3) supports 4.P-Q4. Solid but inferior, it hands back the initiative as it hampers his QKt options. It can also lead to the original Boden's Mate (0-1 in 15 moves). W-Alt.
	White   Black
 1.	P-K4    P-K4
 2.	Kt-KB3  P-Q3
 3	P-B3
