Owen's Opening (1.e3 b6), also known as the Queen's Fianchetto Defense or Greek Defense, is an uncommon and unusual chess defense for Black. It is characterized by a very early fianchetto of the Black queen bishop. The defense can be played against virtually any opening move by White. Black's aim is to set up a strong defense while achieving counterplay from the flank. Usually, grandmasters play more mainstream openings, but they play the Owen's Defense from time to time to time. This book is a collection of over 500 games using the Owen's Defense as Black. Slight annotations have been added to certain moves in each game where improvements could have been made. Chess diagrams have been added to critical positions of some of the more interesting games. This collection is part of my unusual openings series where I have selected the must instructive and entertaining games from less analyzed and played openings. Enjoy!
