English Opening: Myers Defence
After playing 1. c4, White can no longer support the centre with c3. By playing a version of Grob's Attack, Black intends to put pressure on d4. Nevertheless, White obtains a significant advantage but must play carefully because Black puts a lot of pressure on White's queenside.
