BBQXXXXX, Stairway opening, main lines

In this variant (as well as in the case of BBXQXXXX discussed in an other post), the Stairway opening 1.b3 b6 2. c4 c5 (up to permutations) is very good.

BBQNNRKR, main line : 3. Ne3 Nd6 (it prevents 4. Nf5) 4. Bc2 (possibly to play Qb1) Ne6 (it defends g7-pawn) 5. Nd3 Re8 (preparing the castling and defending e7-pawn) Cool

I should start using this opening; after all, it is named after me. ;)
