1... e5
|
My opening was pawn to b3 and black moved his pawn to e5. I want to fianchetto and attack that e5 pawn. |

3... Nc6
|
Black next move is Nc6. Protecting his pawn at e5 and covering some central squares. |
|

|
4. e3
|
I move my pawn to e3 allowing my queen to get access to h5 diagonal. Also I now have places for my knights to develop safely. |

6... Bg4
|
Now black decides to attack my e2 knight with his LB on g4. I don't expect this to affect white too much as the bishop can be knocked back quite easily. |
|

|
|
7. h3
|
I move my pawn to h3 attacking the LB. |
|
| |
|
|
7... Bh5
|
Black could have taken and doubled my pawns on the h file but instead retreats to h5 but I may not be finished yet with that LB. |

So I push my g pawn getting development and pushing the LB again. |

8... Bg6
|
Black's LB moves again to g6 and I think I am probably looking better in terms of development as black has had to make 3 moves with his LB and I have gained development whilst defending. |
|
| |
|
|
9. Bg2
|
I now move my LB out to g2 to access a diagonal to a8 and allowing my king to castle. |
|
| |
|
|
9... d5
|
Black pushes pawn d6 to d5 which again wastes a move. Perhaps better would have been to make that move at the start and then he could have been moving his g8 knight out with that last move. |
