This is the line that mihail Marin gives in his book beating the open games.So these are his notes and ideas. So. 3...Nc6 4.fxe5 d6!? (chessgames Opening explorer gives 4...g6 as the only move,but this isn't so bad.4...Nd4 5.Bd3 d6 6.c3 Ne6 7.exd6 Qxd6 looks promising for Black in view of his better development,but after 8.Bc2 Nf6 9.Qe2 Bxg1 10.e5! because of his pawn center he has chances for an advantage after the simplications.)[bad FEN: r1b1k2r/ppp2ppp/3qnn2/4P3/8/2P5/PPBPQ1PP/RNB1K1bR 5].Bb5 (5.exd6?!
