Brilliancy Against the Italian Game
Sort:
The Best move for white is Bd3
Since you get the pawn back and the bishop is in the center
According to wintrchess it is, but I haven't tested it with chess.com game analysis yet.
I apologize for my ignorance, but isn't the four knights a variation of the italian game? I mean, there's e4, Nf3, Bc4 and then Nc3.
As a FIDE master, would you play this against the four knights? I felt that my position wasn't that good after someone played this against me.

This is more of a 4 knights than an Italian (no Bc5) and about equal after 6.Bd3 de4 7.Bxe4.
After the main move 7...Bd6 it's a bit tricky, but what puts me off is that Black has easy equality after 7...Be6(!) followed by ...Bd5.
Still, it is playable for White, nothing wrong with it at your level.
I see! Thank you! 👍

This is actually a book move for it to be a brilliant move the sequence must be 3.Bb5 a6 4.Bc5
Take a look at this nice way to counter the Italian game four knights variation. It allows to get a pawn after the trades. As white, how would you face this?
