That's why I play it Cool Evrybody know's it "stinks" but they have to prove it!

And it's only a pawn, the loss of one pawn is rarely why players at my level win or lose a game.

If it's any concilation, I'd not seen this opening until 2 weeks ago, and it confused me completely and I lost... so it may be worth keeping in a box for the odd game, just to confuse Patzers like me...
