In light of some of my recently completed and shared games here where I play the bishops opening,
it came to me that it could be available to have one's name attached to it, like other openings do e.g. Philidor's defense, Benko's opening etc
Thus due to my recent success with it, I am declaring it in my own head as Pain's opening 😀
It has its strengths and flaws, as do all openings, but purely as it has brought me more success than any other opening as white,
I feel obliged to cement my dictum by providing you fine people with another recently completed game of mine
Behold
