The Sharp Arkhangelsk Variation in the Ruy Lopez

One of them is the Sharp Arkhangelsk variation which arises after 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6 5.O-O b5 6.Bb3 followed by Bb7 and/or Bc5. It's one of the most powerful opening weapons of great players like Magnus Carlsen and Fabiano Caruana.
