BISHOP'S OPENING - Berlin Defence
(The) Transpositional Variation

White's P-Q3 behind his KB defended his KP, freed his QB and avoided facing the Italian Petroff D.
Black develops his King's Bishop to QB4(c5), enabling rapid castling to deter a 4.Kt-KB3, 5.Kt-KKt5, 6.KtxBP forks Q+KR threat. A rare but solid route to a King's Gambit line! B-Alt.
