I start my game with a few strategies and as the game progresses , I change my game plan as per the opponents moves. I am not sure , if this is exactly possible to follow the same chess strategy from beginning to end.

7.Qa4+ accomplishes the desired effect but it has some extra tricks to it for the opponent to fall into as well as gaining an extra tempo if the correct defense is played. 🙂
