Wonder if they're referring to the two different knights, both which can take d4?
Repeated moves in Opening Explorer
Sort:
yes, probably: Nbxd4 and Nfxd4. Play them both and see.

Problem is I followed both, and both times, was the b-knight that captured.
And both moves have exactly the same stats, (Though different number of moves played.)

So I was browsing through the Opening Explorer, and I reached the following position:
And here I read white's top two choices are 9.Nbxd4 (with 2644 games played), and 9.Nbd4!! (With 1988 games played)
But they are both the same move!
Bug or what?
