🔘Alexander Alekhine - Akiba Rubinstein, The Hague NED, rd 9, Nov-04
🔘 What is your idea about White's moves?☝️☝️
🔳 Following several eccentricities by Black in the Queen's Gambit, white embarks upon an early attack, moving his h-pawn three times, his dark-squared bishop four times and, after Bf6, probably has a winning position. Alekhine analyzes this game in detail (game 61) in his Best Games of Chess.

📘 4.Ba4!?
A strange move that for the first time, was played in 2008. Ukrainian Shevchenko was the first grandmaster that played it in 2016.
The idea behind the move is to prevent Black from gaining space on the queenside with a6-b5. Now, if 4...a6, then 5.c4.
4...Ngf6 5.0-0 a6 6.c4 g6 7.Nc3 Bg7 8.d3
