Bronstein Attack

The Bronstein Attack comes from the old main line of the Latvian Gambit, 3. Nxe5 Qf6 4. d4 d6 5. Nc4 fxe4. Here White answers Black's advanced e4-pawn with the developing 6. Be2 instead of challenging it at once. The most frequent reply is 6...d5, which gains time against the knight. The engine prefers 6...Nc6, which also gives Black the best results, while 6...Bf5 fares poorly. The engine rates White slightly better.
