I usually use the petroff defense, but some of my opponents do a move that "forces" me to enter the four knights.

Is there any solid reply that doesn't enter that kind of game?

feytermans got it, 3...Bb4 equalizies for black. I stoped playing 3.Nc3 against Petrov's defense just because of this line.
