    According to Chessgames.com, the most frequently played continuation is really 6... dxc4 with 1,998 out 3,397 games with Black winning 14% of the time.

    Rhal's 6... b6 is ranked 4th in popularity with only 213 games but has a higher winning percentage for Black at almost 21%.

    However, the move that gives Blck the highest winning percentage at 31% is 6... Ne4, but with only 13 games so far.
