From a recent game on my local chess server: Shredder 3 Wb x GnuChess 1. d4 Nf6 2.c4 e5 3.g3!? I could not believe it, and after the game ended I found it was really Shredder's book move... incredible. Searched my databases, nothing! Searched the web, and I found only: [Event "?"] [Site "Flint ch-MI class-C"] [Date "1993.??.??"] [White "Rodriguez, J"] [Black "Lewis, C"] [Round "2"] [Result "0-1"] [ECO "A51"] 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e5 3. g3 exd4 4. Qxd4 Nc6 5. Qd1 Bb4+ 6. Bd2 Qe7 7. Nf3 Ne4 8. Bg2 Nxd2 9. Nbxd2 and [Event ""] [Site ""] [Date "1985.??.??"] [White "Korchnoi, V"] [Black "Polugaevsky, L"] [Round ""] [Result "1/2-1/2"] [ECO "A51"] 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e5 3. g3 Bb4+ 4. Bd2 Be7 5. Bg2 d5 6. Nf3 O-O 7. O-O c6 8. Qc2 b6 9. b3 Nbd7 10. Bc3 Bb7 11. Nbd2 c5 12. dxc5 Nxc5 13. Qb2 Are there any more games with 3.g3!? ? Why Shredder 3 doesn't have 3.dxe5 as the standard move? Are there any "positional" reason to decline the Budapest Gambit ? A. Ponti
