1.h3! 2.a3!!

This is a G60 game I played in a tournament last year. My opponent's opening choice is interesting. Somehow it got to a too messy middlegame, but I survived at the end.

So, we have a couple names given already, but I believe this is officially called the Ware Opening, Crab Variation.

This is the "Dog-ear opening", of course! If I may be the godfather.
