Austrian Attack:Dragon[edit | edit source]

6.dxc5[edit | edit source]

White chooses the simplest option, taking the pawn. Black's next move wins back a pawn and achieves a better pawn structure. The other option for White would be to ignore Black's threats and lose the pawn, in addition to getting an inferior position.
