A couple of years ago I thought that 12... Be6 probably was the strongest reply
to 9. a3 but having played loads of games using PC programs it would seem that
13.Re1 "probably" wins. I cannot give one mainline as it's so complex but all
that I've analyzed deeply seem to lead to a significant advantage for white.
Have a play - it's a facinating position!

Steve
