Welcome back to another opening "lesson"

This time I am going to talk about the "Giuoco Pianissimo, Italian Four Knights Variation". Long isn't it. This what the "Giuoco Pianissimo, Italian Four Knights Variation" looks like:

To some people it might look complicated, really it is not. The thing is that most people have never ever seen this opening. Actually, according to statistics this opening occurs less than 1 in 1000 games. Understand that means this opening is rare. Does it mean that the opening is bad? Absolutely not! Actually white has around a 71% of winning and black has about a 29% of wining. That's good if you are white. One good part is that you can castle in 5 moves. The example I will be showing is how I play the opening. Note that there are different ways to do this opening. Example:

Another good thing about this opening is that you develop your pieces in a few moves!

Well, that wraps it up for this so called "lesson", and I will continue to do more of these short lessons with the 4 knights openings. Tell me in the comments if you liked it, I make a mistake, or if there is anything I can improve on!
