Petroff. 8. Re1 variation, main line with 9. c4.
This is one of those lines you see a lot in the Petroff. I think the most common continuation is 10. cxd5.

Sorry EdwardT2. Nice job Blackwaive. It is a popular line indeed.

Here is the next one, please write the line as well as the opening's name:
Edit: Sorry, I thought you were talking about the last puzzle. It is actually one of the mainlines of Petroff as BlackWaive said. Not sure if it can come from a QGD.

I have NO clue. That position is odd for several reasons. Namely, black hasn't moved either center pawn yet, a very early queen exchange, and f3.
Here's my best guess:
Well it is a Grunfeld in which White has played like a wimp with no ambition at all.
Well, I agree with you but this is one of the popular lines in Grunfeld and black needs to be prepared so I asked it.
Grünfeld with Bg5 - you're posting tricky lines with early piece trades
1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 d5 4.Nf3 Bg7 5.Bg5 Ne4 6.cxd5 Nxg5 7.Nxg5 e6 8.Nf3 exd5 9.e3 0-0 and now 10.b4 preventing ...c5 is thematic

Yep, good job :)
Next position:
1.d4...d5 2.c4....c6 3.Nc3..e6 4.Nf3...Nf6 5.e3...Nbd7 6.Bd3.....dxc4 7.Bxc4....b5 8.Bd3...Bb7 9.e4...b4 10.Na4...c5
Congrats, that was quick o.o
Next one!
sideline in the two knights defence
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nf6 4.Ng5 d5 5.exd5 Na5 6.Bb5+ c6 7.dxc6 bxc6 8.Qf3 h6 9.Ne4 Nd5 10.Nbc3 cxb5 11.Nxd5
Here is the deal, I will give you a position, I'll tell you the move number and who's turn it is to move.
You will try to find which opening the position came from and actually find the moves that got to this position.(These games are all high rated games so try to get here with reasonable moves) For example;
It's move 10. White to move.
Answer: Ruy Lopez - Exchange Variation
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Bxc6 dxc6 5.0-0 Bg4 6.h3 h5 7.d3 Qf6 8.Nbd2 Ne7 9.Re1 Be6 10.?
You can also try to find the next move which should be even more instructive.
So here is the first question:
