6... Nf5 7. a3

The critical line is considered to be:

7. e4 dxe3 8. Qxd8+ Nxd8 when White's activity is more important than his doubled
and isolated pawns on the open e- file -- though Black certainly has long-term
prospects.

(Perhaps the alternate recapture with 8... Kxd8 offers better chances, though the stem
game looked good for White after 9. fxe3 (9. Bxe3! Nxe3 10. fxe3 Bilguer) 9... Bb4+

meet this line, but what it might be is not clear to me.

Not 7. g4? Nh4 8. Nbxd4 Bxg4!

7... Be7N

7... Be6 is also playable, with the main example leading to complex play after 8. Qd3
