1.b3 has very good stats for white even though you have to be ready to defend an early b5 or a5 from black

1.b3 a5 is an interesting response for black.
However, of course black has many more mainstream ideas, and I think black should have little to worry about against this opening.
If I can get 100 subscribers until the end of the mouth, I will make a video about 1.b3 a5
