4 knights opening
Hmmm....
I've seen this opening before, but zz_brandon showed me it.
This is a good opening, but there may be a better way to bring out your bishop, because you are trading a knight for a bishop in an open game, which could cause some problems later on, especially if the game becomes closed, and your opponent has a good bishop, and you do not. If the game is completely closed, then most likely, this would not be a good trade. Really, it is a good opening, but there are better.
Thanks for posting this opening....

The moves you showed are classified as Two Knights Defence.
4 Nc3 is not the best move in that sequence.
4 d3 is most commonly played.
Actually in your original post you demonstrated 4 Nc3 isnt the best move. You showed a sequence by which black gets a good position.
You dont understand the numbers? Refer to the move list of your original post. Your original post includes 4 Nc3. At that point 4 d3 is better.
