I would think that White could gain an advantage some way, but Black hasn't scored to badly so far.  I try to be careful before condeming moves before I know all of the ideas behind them.  So perhaps one of you strong players could just let us know White's best response that would be swell.  Roll Eyes

This looks pretty good, but isn't this just a weakening of the kingside if White fianchettoes his dark-squared bishop? I guess maybe, Black stopped the bishop from going to Bg5, but I'm not sure if it is worth the trempo. What do you think?

What is White's third move?

I had heard that Morozevich had won with 3...h6!? and there are several games with this on chessbases' online database.  I guess the idea is to make a useful waiting move to see how White proceeds.  Anyone have a recommendation for White's best after 3...h6?
