French Defence: Advance Variation[edit]
5. Nf3[edit]
Here Black has several options, in the Main Line Black increases the pressure on White's d4 pawn once more, by playing 5...Qb6.
5...Bd7, is a good alternative move, which was known by Greco as early as 1620, and it's still played frequently today.
