Chekhover means white takes the pawn at d4 with queen in opening variation.
It seems white still can play easily with this move, here is a line.
Then white can play something like Nd4 or Rd1, it seems everything is ok.
As Sicilian is very complicated, is this a good idea to avoid black's opening prepare?
