I notice it was played by Kamran Shirazi in 2008. (I recall Stuart Rachels, who played Shirazi a few times, calling him something like "the master of the bizarre.")

You could call it that, I suppose. But are there any other players trying this line out?

National Master Yefim Treger of New York regularly plays 1 e4 c5 2 Nf3 d6 4 e5 against the Sicilian Defense. My question is, what is the name of this variation?
