Larsen's Opening (1.b3), also known as the Nimzovich-Larsen Attack, Queen's Fianchetto Opening, Baby Orangutan, and Danish Opening, is an unusual hypermodern attempt to control the center through control of the a1-h8 diagonal. White avoids committing the central pawns in the early part of the opening. The flank opening move avoids more prepared theoretical variations much analyzed in modern chess opening theory. he Danish grandmaster Bent Larsen (1935-2010) became the leading player to adopt this opening in the 1960s. It was part of his opening repertoire for many years, playing 1.b3 at least 45 times in major tournaments from 1968 through 1995. Larsen believed unusual openings forced a player to rely on his own abilities instead of relying on memorized, well-analyzed moves. This book is a collection of over 500 games based on Larsen's Opening. This collection of instructive and entertaining games should be of interest to those players who like unusual openings. Have fun!
