We've started. I'd like to encourage everyone to look up a variation or two before playing out the games. Please avoid using the Openings Explorer for specific moves.
Would love to get feedback on what everyone thinks/feels about this opening...facets of it that you like or don't like...anything you notice about it. You can post on the tournament page.
Good luck.
