B10 Caro-Kann: 2.d3 and 2.c4 (1.e4 c6 2.c4 e5)

I have come up with something special to share when I do not have anymore different openings to go through but I am not going to spoil the surprise yet. I have not experimented with the idea yet to test if it works but I am quite confident about it at the moment. Only time will tell what my brilliant idea is. Safe to say though that it will bring even more diversity to this blog and that is all I am going to say about it. For the time being I hope you enjoy the posts I have made and if you do, please tell your friends about it. I have updated more puzzles today as well in the mate in ones, twos and threes. I did manage to go through one of my databases and went on to the next one, where I can pull even more puzzles for you all to solve. Until next time, my fellow chess enthusiasts.
