Kxd8 *
This line has become popular for some time and
gives White almost no advantage. I have played
this opening line myself but noticed that the
stronger players do in most cases avoid this
line with 4.Nf3
[D]rnbqkb1r/ppp2ppp/3p1n2/4p3/3PP3/2N2N2/PPP2PPP/R1BQKB1R b KQkq - 0 4
Much stronger than 4.dxe5 is the transpostion 4.Nf3
when Black has the usual Philidor Defence which is rather
awful to defend with black.
