Bogo-Indian Defence[edit | edit source]
Black plays Bb4+ and White has to block against the check. If White plays Nc3 then it's tranposed into a Nimzo-Indian defence if instead White blocks on d2 then the resulting complications are likely to see an exchange of pieces. The positions are about equal and with pieces traded draws are not uncommon.
