  fredthebear: Just how many openings are named after plants, anyway? What about the tubers category?
Nov-02-23  Chessdrunk69: This opening reminds me of The Lion setup, but with a4 thrown in for some reason
Nov-02-23  Granny O Doul: The "Meadow Hay" begins with the same first two moves, but I believe White typically then continues with 3. e3 and if possible, a5, a6. Probably 3...e5 is met by 4. Bb5.
