This is the stuff most would like to see. The Muzio Gambit Nakamura used against a 2710 player.

I would also like them to resurrect theme tournaments where just one wild opening is just used. Not for WCC but a tournament of some sort in this regards.

Now that's what I really like,the theme tournaments where we witness particular opening lines forced to be played by the participants....

A great idea indeed :D

They were doing that a long time ago but it faded cause everyone wants to play it safe. Let's say you have everyone play the Muzio Gambit or some other psychotic opening. Each player gets to be on both sides. it would be an awesome tournament. When you go to a boxing match which ones do people love the most? The one that turns into a bloody barroom brawl. Look at the fighters of the 50's. 15 rounds, no technicals, those guys were in shape and you had some brawlers who were very tough in the ring.

He did not. He avoided complicated lines. Has decided for 0-0-0 and then stepped back exchanging queens.
Opening expert was outprepared or he is afraid of playing sharp?

Words to remember

"To shuffle your queen like a drunk dancer... is a shame..." (Dr. W. Deeb)


The one and *only* exception from this beautiful rule in chess - is when
you try to play a good game vs one well chosen chess program - with your
mind and body full of red Chilean wine...

He should have played Qh5 instead of exchsnging the queens but unfortunately he had simply chickened out....

Another one or two games like this and I will rather watch Spongebob
Squarepants with his stupid friend Patrick rather than wasting my time with this low quality WCC edition regards,
