Hard work, piece of art, or blufpoker ?

Cheers. I play on-line chess for fun not for profit ;)

> 2. I don't get how 3. Bb5+ followed by 4. Be2 accomplishes something, it is just a waste of tempo. White can get a good position with 3.d4 instead.

That is, if my memory serves me well, recommended by IM Sielecki in his 1.e4 book. The idea is that the Bd7 is off-side, while the white setup is harmonieus, and it is recommended for black to play Bf5 soon after that.
blufpoker sounds like the word that would describe my life perfectly!
