Your move bitcointalk. You have the black pieces

The current position is updated below:

Game 2 (letsplayagame vs bitcointalk):
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5

As predicted by actmyname, we're dealing with the Ruy Lopez or Spanish Game.

Several options are available, including:

3...a6 (Morphy Defence)
3...Nf6 (Berlin Defence)
3...Bc5 (Classical or Cordel Defence)
3...Nge7 (Cozio Defence)
3...g6 (Smyslov Defence)
3...Nd4 (Bird's Defence)
3...d6 (Steinitz Defence)
3...f5!? (Schliemann Defence or Jaenisch Gambit)


I vote for a6. What do you think?

a6: 1 vote (hermesesus)

Game is fluid can't case moves. I'm already ready to secede after our second move.

Jaenisch gambit - Hueristic

I vote for the Berlin defense as well. It does give us good chances to draw, at the very least.

Not the Berlin ending.

I vote a6.

I don't really want a Berlin ending either and am changing my vote to a6 with this goal:
