Practise the Vienna Game: Stanley Variation

The Stanley Variation is 1.e4 e5 2.Nc3 Nf6 3.Bc4, a line of the Vienna Game in which White develops the bishop instead of playing f2-f4. Play White's moves of the line from memory — 1. e4 e5 2. Nc3 Nf6 3. Bc4 — and the trainer plays Black's replies; "Play the other side" turns it around.

"Drill all" adds the 8 named lines that continue it, such as Bishop's Opening: Vienna Hybrid, Spielmann Attack, Vienna Game: Stanley Variation, Reversed Spanish, Vienna Game: Frankenstein-Dracula Variation, Vienna Game: Stanley Variation, Monster Declined, Vienna Game: Stanley Variation, Frankenstein-Dracula Variation, Vienna Game: Stanley Variation, Alekhine Variation, Vienna Game: Stanley Variation, Eifel Gambit, Vienna Game: Adams' Gambit.
