There is a new engine on chess.com LIVE chess  with different strengthes KOMODO 1-20. You might think its a Gentleman, but this is not the case, I lost many matches against that monstrum.

 

HIKARU NAKAMURA has played against all this levels, and always started (from level 6 on) with 1.b3 - building a hippopotamus setup.

 

Check his games here and play like NAKAMURA
