what sicilian opening is this?

its not a sicilian, its a semi slav defense

Yes, agree with Fear_Itself. It's not sicilian.

Sicilian Defense starts with 1.e4 c5

Please don't misunderstand me, but I am curious to know why you ask which sicilian variation it is?

This is a Sicilian Alapin : 1.e4 c5 2.c3 d5 3.exd5 Nf6 4.d4 cxd4 5.cxd4 Nxd5 6.Nc3 e6 7.Nxd5 Qxd5 8.Nf3 g6 9.Bd3

Really? Cool one. So this is the transposition of moves on Sicilian.

Hicetnunc apparently has a well developed: 4. Opening repertoire visualization pattern memory bank

Well, this variation is unlikely (especially as ...e6 and ...g6 don't mix too well), but still plausible, so I thought it would be funny to point out this possibility.

Some openings can lead to pawn structures featuring in other openings...

Guys thank you for all your comments but when I looked it up more. It is actually the Caro Kann for black and the queens gambit for white lolz.

That's not how that works.

Caro Kann?!?!?!? Caro Kann is 1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5.

White never played e4.

He means that black has the same pawn formation as a Caro Kann. Like Jadeite says it doesn't work like that though.

Im talking about black's opening by it self. Caro Kann is c6 than d5. Jrzmath99 if you knew so well why didn't you comment before?

it still doesn't work like that. It's like playing the sicilian without 1...c5.

Suddenly I understand where the title came from.

Trolling?

lol guys this was a troll. Dang hey wafflemaster you guessed it right. I was going to tell after someone asked me if it was a joke lol.

Yay, I feel like I'm usually bad at spotting them, this time I got it right
