A01 The Nimzo-Larsen attack: Classical Variation

1.b3 d5

1...d5, the Classical Variation, is the second (after 1...e5, the Modern Variation) most common response to meet 1.b3, also making a grab for the centre and preserving the option to fianchetto the king's bishop to oppose the White one, but not engaging in early confrontation.
