No that is not true. IM Basman did play 1...a6, 2...b5, 1...b5, 2...a6, 1...g5, 2...h6, 1...h6 2...g5, 1...a6 2...h6, but he never sacrificed the pawn. He played this even against grandmasters.

there he is sacrificing the pawn on move 1. The opponent an expert chickened out but took it anyways a few moves later.
