Caro Players,

IGNORE 3. f3! It sucks! I promise!!

There is an evil conspiracy to get you to think it's sound so you'll study
against it and fall into the evil traps by those posting what appear to be
crushing lines for White.

He wins because of the weak play of his opposition, not f3 or f6.

The reason he wins is that time is the most overrated factor in the opening,
and people think because he wastes a move that he's lost, when at worst he's
down maybe 0.50 (half-pawn).
