Standard Chess #145: IM Bartholomew vs. alexieve (Ponziani Opening)
This Ponziani is for you, Justin! In the line 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.c3!? (the Ponziani Opening) 3...d5 4.Qa4 Bd7!? Black sacrifices a pawn for an early development lead. On move 8 I'm at a crossroads between 8.Bc4 and 8.d3, and my decision will have major consequences for the rest of the game.
