I've found these kinds of positions interesting to play.  Structure for easy development and often opposite side castling.

That's the modern main line, wafflle. It's really good and I'll get to it next week.

I had no idea that was the modern main line Tongue Out  I saw some top GM game with it a few years ago and I stole it without looking back for more hah.

so, any line against white's Nc3 and 0-0-0?

 

I was wondering, how much is there to study in the Petroff compared to other openings?

It seems to me that there are a lot of forced lines....

I almost never play against the Petrov so when I do I have no strategy. My only hope-
