Why play 1. b3?

Hello everyone

I have been playing the Nimzowitsch Larsen Attack for a long time now, and have even trusted it enough to play it at the FIDE level. I have observed that 1. b3 is highly underrated, and is also sometimes a novelty. Also, the Larsen Opening did not see as much study on YouTube as it deserves. So, I have been making a lot of detailed study, and, recently, uploaded an introduction video on my newly-formed YT channel, TargetChess YT. Please message me if you would like to help build content with me and speeden my study.

Also, if you are interested in playing 1. b3, you can message me or can visit my Youtube channel.
