The full mainline of the QGA, where after 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.e3 e6 5.Bxc4, both sides develop classically. Black plays ...c5 to challenge the centre and ...a6 to prepare ...b5 with queenside expansion. White retains a small space advantage and a slightly more flexible position - the perfect starting point for a long strategic battle.
