Sicilian Defense - Halasz Gambit

. .
1.e4 c5 2.d4 cxd4 3. Bd3

An interesting line. Clyde Nakamura said that he is currently playing this line. As I do not play 1.e4 I will probably not use this line. The games were still interesting to analyse though. I enjoy going over crazy positions. One word of advice that I took from Mr. Nakamura is that he says he likes to change his opening repertoire every 6 months to throw off his opponents. I recently changed up my repertoire online and have had great success. I changed from 1.Nf3 lines to 1.f4 lines. My ususal opponents were definitely caught off guard.
