Sep 25, 2017 at 14:09 comment added Evargalo There is no advantage at all for White after 2.d5 e5, even less a "big advantage". Neither does your answer provide any concrete line for him to continue, for instance 3.Bg5?! which you seem to suggest passes the initiative to Black after either 3...Bc5 or 3...h6.
Sep 24, 2017 at 3:26 comment added Philip Roe Whites d5 gave Black complete freedom to put his pieces just where he wants them. In particular it gives up control of the central squares e5 and c5 that he secured with d4. In response, occupying one of those undefended squares with 2...e5 looks like a great start. If 3.Bg5, then 3..Bc5 occupies the other one, and creates amusing possibilities like 4.Nf3? Bxf2+ or 4...Ne4.
