I can only say that axb5 is suggested by chess programs.

I already read it in this forum few weeks ago when a player described his wins
against chess programs with this move so the fact that axb5 is good is not news
from yesterday.

Old Deep Fritz6 on old hardware(p850) has no problem to find it and Junior7 can
find it even faster.

I also think that authors of opening books should care to use computers program
to analyze every position in the books and give notes about moves that are
suggested by programs even if they think that the moves are bad.


Here is the analysis of Deep Fritz and Junior7(Fritz8 is not installed in the
p850 that I use now but I guess that it also can find axb5).
