This defence was introduced by the Mexican grandmaster Carlos Torre. The first game with this opening happened in a blitz session between the U.S. Champion Frank Marshall and Carlos Torre, and was played on a ship in their route from U.S. to Baden-Baden tournament in 1925. In the game Marshall was defeated in seven moves.

    hmm it still looks like black has the advantage, even in material but black has serious development advantage while white's c1 bishop can't even get out!
