Evgeny Postny examines in the current ChessBase Magazine #214 the variation 1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.exd5 cxd5 4.Bd3 Nc6 5.c3 Nf6 6.h3 (which, in contrast to the main continuation 6.Bf4, prevents the development of Black's bishop to g4) with the active advance 6.e5. From Postny's point of view a sound reaction, which “offers Black adequate play in all variations” even though an isolani on d5 will be involved.
