ohh

I don't have a favorite author

Fair enogh

Bruce Pandolfini,he is direct and to the point.

Probably John Watson. Watson made me realize that strong players (almost) always think in terms of concrete analysis first and abstract principles second.

We are privileged to have the creator of "Barson's Opening" in the thread,o7!

Nimzowitsch

That's correct.
Barsen's opening is, of course, playing b3 on any move after move one

Hyper-modern does not do it justice,a new catagory is needed.

11 call it barsons move then? Not necessarily an opening if it can be played at anytime

I'd say any move of mine could be categorized as 'hyper-likely to lose'

Well, I still think of it as part of the opening, if only super-duper deferred "76, b3! an unexpected opening shot -- particularly unexpected as it's happening in the endgame!"

^ lol, thats the spirit!
