Bogo-Indian Defense
1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 Bb4+
In the Bogo-Indian Defense, named for GM Efim Bogoljubow, Black develops the kingside quickly. As with most hypermodern openings, the "Bogo" (as it is known informally) seeks to fight for central squares with pieces before occupying them with pawns.
Starting Position
The Bogo-Indian begins 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 Bb4+. Variations branch out depending on how White blocks the check.
