The Nimzowitsch Variation is the main line of the Bogo-Indian Defense. It's wonderfully complex both positionally and strategically, and it's bound to sharpen your understanding of chess (after many blunders:D).

The Bogo-Indian is one of the richest and most strategically complex openings in chess. It's a combination of several defenses, and it brings together the Nimzo, the QGD, the QID and even the Dutch! The emphasis in the Bogo is on maneuvering, central control, and understanding the numerous thematic pawn structures it could result in.
The Bogo starts after 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nf3 Bb4+, and white now has several options. The two viable ones are Bd2 (the main line), and Nbd2, which is perhaps trickier for black to face.
There are multiple options against Bd2. The main line and the most popular move is Qe7, followed by a5 and c5. The fourth most common is the Exchange Variation, taking on d2 with Bxd2. Qe7, the Nimzowitsch variation, is the main line and the most principled move. Simply defending the bishop and discouraging the trade as the queen would become active very early on.

It leads to very complex positions in which the main battle is going to be waged on the queenside, with black trying to seize control of the key dark squares.
