RUY LOPEZ
The Steinitz Defence
Black's Queen's Pawn to Q3(d6) switches his
KP defence and frees his QB. Solid but constricted
(self-pinning his QKt until ..B-Q2), a defensive reply less
popular than its Deferred
(3..P-QR3, 4.B-R4..P-Q3) form. Its use is closely linked to the
Berlin Def. (3..Kt-KB3).
