i played otb chess with a friend of mine for the first time.
she claimes she used to be an old university chess club (poland) player.
her first move was white opening by moving TWO pawns at once. d2.d3 and e2.e3
i looked at here in disbelief and laughed about here strange move and said this is not allowed to play. she claimed by high and low it is allowed. she was not joking. i refused this opening and told here to move one pawn only. she took one pawn back and continued play. she played very knowledgeable and won the game. i can not find the existence of this rule but she insist it is allowed. here playing style and background let me believe it can be a (old) rule?
anyone ever heard of this rule and is it allowed?
