    Im a fan of strange and obscure openings, so just wondering bout this opening, whether it is playable or just plain stupid. Thanks for your comments.

    After 4. Nxc6, either 4...dc   5. Qxd8  Kxd8  6. d4,   or....

             4.  Nxc6 bc  5. d4  is bad for Black.  White is up a Pawn with a full center and no weaknesses.  At least that's how I see it.

    No -- I thought Black's d-pawn was clear.  4.  Nxc6  dc  5. Be2 seems safe, though. Still up a pawn and Black doesn't seem to have a concrete threat?
