the most boring opening of all


Once again, black should take care of cxd5-Qb3 idea which works with Nc3 and Nf3.
Black's play is bad but it is just to show what happens if black just develops "normally".

Bf5 reminds me of this wonderful game:
And especially this one:
Brunello has a lecture on youtube about the second game:
