D00 1.d4 d5: Unusual lines (1.d4 Nf6 2.e3 d5 3.h3)

I am starting to reach a point where it is increasingly hard to find an opening variation that has not been played in any of my games before and hence there might be quite a lot of games added per day sometimes. This Friday might become the first day when I have not found a new opening to cover in this blog. I do have some time still to prevent that from happening, but at the time it does not look all that promising unless I can intentionally play a game where a new opening is featured. The game below was played in a team match called Open Challenge ♕♖ChEsS MaTeS♕♖. It is played on 26 boards between ♕♖ChEsS MaTeS♕♖ and Philippine Critical Movers. I am playing on board 4 for the home team ♕♖ChEsS MaTeS♕♖. The score in the match is 26 - 15 in our favor, so even a draw from the remaining games would secure the win for us.

Game number two. This is one that was played over six years ago at Red Hot Pawn. It is still a site where I play a lot of games, a lot more than six years ago actually. Back then I could play maximum of six games, now I play 135 games there. Which is actually the most I play at any other site. Chess.com is currently a close second but it might get the number one spot soon.
