Scandinavian with 3...Qd6 - 5 Nge2!? I'm mostly happy with the Scandinavian main lines starting with 5 Nf3 etc. from the White side, but is there any reason why the slightly hacky 5 Nge2 isn't more popular?

SCANDINAVIAN 2...Nf6 ?! Three Questions: 1. Am i the last crazy warrior, suffering with this line, or are there some others anywhere outside? 2.

Kiel Trap: 1.e4 d5 2.exd5 Nf6 3.d4 Nxd5 4.c4 Nb4 A thread to discuss the so-called "Kiel Trap" (in German: Kieler Falle). Let's see whether 5.a3 is a clear refutation, or not.
