1. e4 c5 2. d4 cxd4 3. c3 Nf6 (3... Nc6 {In Milla vs Cobb Florida State
Championship, October 2019, I played Nc6 in this position. Although I managed

7. h3 g6 8. O-O Bg7 9. Qe2 O-O 10. Rd1 Qa5 11. Be3 {The first break from
theory, although we left GM theory awhile ago. 11. Bc4 and Bf4 have been played
} Bd7 {Transposing back into previously trod territory, not that I knew all of
this at the time.} 12. Rac1 {a3 and Nh2 have been tried here} Rac8 13. a3 a6
14. Bb1 Be6 {The idea is to place the B on b3 and take control of the d1 square
