Well duh, but after that i'm talking about the first 4-5 moves or so.. wat would be good after that....

Well Nf3,Bc4 and Nc3 of course.Setting it up is all you can do.It's impossible to force your opponent into it,he/she has to cooperate.The italian game,vienna and four knights opening can lead to it.But your oppo has to make a serious error in the first 5 moves,I wouldn't raise my hopes too high.

I did it here. It's not particularly likely, although as you can see, even experienced players like burvm make the occasional lapse.

Game 384060

I think the Legall's Mate is the best i absolutely love it....
