Any idea what type of opening this is, after move #10?
I would like to know both sides. Thanks for the input.

I don't what white is doing
but 6...g6 is an unnecessary blacks bishop is already on an open diagonal Bd6 places the bishop in a great position without wasting a move

I feel it was a solid progession though. By the end, i was trying to determine who had the advantage. Any ideas, this was a live chess game, for those wondering. Thanks.

ECO: B00. Thats the big bad hippo!!! It is generally played by black as a way to confuse ones opponent... g3 is the hungarian and is just another way to start that setup.

After move 10, I think that the idea for White is to close the center, hide his King on b1 or a1 and throw his pawns forward on the kingside to try to attack Black's king. To be successful, however, the center must be somewohat stable or closed so that there are no breakthroughs in the center. For Black, I think an attack on the queenside is important, keep the center mobile to aid in the attack and be as fast as possible. These are very general plans and have to be supported by concrete analysis and variations.

what s that?

white = coffee house play :o)
I mean a lot of small pawn moves, trying to stay solid, while playing fast to get time advantage. This is not very ambitious, but in blitz it can work very well.
black = dream opening
Black is developping without any problem, developping pieces.
