C84 Closed Spanish Game: Unusual White 6th moves (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6 5.O-O Be7 6.c3)

I am still finding new opening variations that I have not covered in these posts, for how long I can do it, I do not know but there ought to be quite a few still left. When I run out of openings, I will update the older posts and start doing some chess exercise posts more. I may need to start wrapping up things for today, need to eat some food soon and after that go through my somewhat extensive amount of correspondence chess games.
