Richter Veresov

#1
2.Nc3 and 3.Bg5 looks very strong, i don't know why but my opponents have a lot off trouble against this opening and are not afraid because they play fast, very fast.

However I'm not sure if I'll play it one day OTB. Still look a little bit strange for me.

#2
In my Czech course there are transpositions to Veresov in the Bg5 chapter. Positions close to losing arise like

#4
In the Veresov pawns are exchanged on e4, in the Czech on e5. Bg5 and ...Da5 and by a strange accident the positions are the same.

My move order transposes directly to the bad Veresov line. I recommend this one for Black as refutation, see above.
