Simon's Advice:

1) When Black goes e6 and takes on b4, bring your queen to g4 in many variations to attack g7

2) Keep using your pawns to attack Black's Pieces (at least in the e6 line)

3) In the e6 variation, we often want to play R-a3-g3 or h3

4) In e6 variation, if the knight goes to c7 or b6, play Ra3. If the knight goes to e7, play Qg4 and route the b1 knight to d6 eventually.

5) Against Nc6, gambit the pawn and play c3 and d4 for the huge center. Keep in mind the pin on the a-file.

6) In Nc6 variation, play Na5 after d5/exd/Qd5. Plan is for white to play Nb5

7) Go b4, sacrificing a pawn. Play to the initiative. Either gain the center or go for quick play and the moves Bb2 and Ra3.
