It depends. Is CM aware of the drawish nature of the Gothenburg variation? For example, if CM is playing for a win, will it "know" to avoid the Gothenburg variation and instead head for the classical 8...Qc7 ? P.S. If black is playing for a win, he'd better avoid playing 7...Be7 in this variation, and instead, play 7...Qb6 heading towards the poisoned pawn variation. >jm
