PETROFF'S DEFENCE
The Damiano Variation
White's KB3(f3) knight removed Black's KP to threaten 4.KtxBP while inviting a 3..KtxP exchange.
Black's Knight counter-attacks early, removing the pawn on K5(e4) - a dubious move first given by Damiano (d.1544), who noted a trap therein. But still popular with adventurous players! B-Alt.
