PHILIDOR'S DEFENCE
The Hanham Variation
White threatened 4.PxP to trade pawns and then queens (stopping Black castling), to gain by 6.KtxP.
Black best develops his Queen's Knight, but to Q2(d7) (a mark of the "Hanham" variations) to support his KP at all costs, so that any pawn swap retains queens. B-Alt.
	White	Black
