King's Pawn Opening
(to) MODERN (or ROBATSCH) DEFENCE
White attacked Q5+KB5 and freed his (her) KB and Q diagonals, hoping to occupy the centre fully.
Black leaves the "Épine Dorsale" for the Modern Defence. The King's Knight's Pawn push enables a fianchetto while allowing White the centre. Popular with advanced players, this flexible defence plans a delayed development of Black's KKt. B-Alt.
