Player with 1804 Elo would not play 2...Qxd5 

Why not? It's the main line...

Nice combination!

DemonicSoldier> Player with 1804 Elo would not play 2...Qxd5 

Anand, the current world champion, has played 2...Qxd5. And GM Eric Prie (who plays it regularly) just published a series on it in NIC Yearbook. It's most effective against folks who erroneously feel they can blow it off the board.

6.h3?! - I'm not really sure if this is theorical, but it really bugs me when they play Bg4 pinning the knight when i play it to f3.

It's a theoretical error, for a couple reasons. First, ...Bg4 has been replaced by ...Bf5 as the mainline because after 6.Nf3 Bg4 7.h3 Bh5 8.g4 Bg6 the advance of the kingside pawns favors White as long as he castles long. Second, if you think of the Scandinavian as a Caro where White doesn't have his most aggressive options but he's up a tempo, White's only edge is that tempo, and this move wastes it. A better try was 6.Bc4!? Bf5 7.Nd5 Qd8 {forced} 8.Nxf6 gxf6 or 6.Bc4!? Bf5 7.Nf3 e6 8.Qe2 Bb4. Not that these force a win or anything, but these are more challenging for Black than 6.h3?!

6...Qc7 - Black usually can't afford an early queen retreat, but after 6.h3 he can. I prefer ...Bf5, but Black should still have an equal middlegame.

7.Nf3 e6? - But why?? Black locks in his own bishop without White making any corresponding concessions. 7...Bf5 and Black would still be fine!

---

17...Nd7! - Forces simplifications and keeps Black in the game. Perhaps Caissa has a sense of justice or irony in that a second error with respect to when and how to move the light-squared bishop (Black played 17...Bb7) was this player's downfall.

Well done exploiting his mistakes so well in 3 minutes. :)

Thanks for the analysis likesforests. From the opening was the same as my teacher said, so now it is reinforced. Only one thing. When i analyced it with Rybka 3, it said after b6 that i had clear advantange, so, i would still be much better and black wouldn't be so on the game, but it still looks like the better move and the one that makes it more  difficult for white.

DemonicSoldier, if you were reffering to the line with 2...Nf6 when i was told the teorical i knew that wasn't a really good line. After 2...Nf6 comes 3.Bb5+. If you play 3...c6 4.dxc6 and white is a pawn up with no compensation. If 3...Nbd7  there is no threat, so i keep developing. Finally the good one, 3...Bd7, 4.Bc4 and it tooks a really good time to eat that pawn and can be saved if black doesn't play sharply
