 | | whiteshark: <bishop55: 9...Bd5, maybe.> I think that compared with e.g. <9.Qxc6 Bd5 10. Qxa6 Bxg2 11. Nh3 Bxh1 12.Nh5+ Kg6 13.Qxb5>  click for larger view the game continuation looks much easier (or technically solid). At least I could now imagine why Moiseenko had choosen the actual line. Thanks for that, <bishop55>! |

 | | HeMateMe: This is amazing. Why would black allow a game to start like this? |
 |
| Oct-02-10 | | Illogic: If 11.. Nc2, then white plays e4! and Ng5+ |
 |
| Oct-11-10 | | blazerdoodle: Maybe he just figured he should do something incredibly inane and shock his opponent into making an even more stupid mistake, I mean, since he knew he was going to lose before he sat down, why not do something absurd? It sure didn't work.
Didn't Alekhine play this, or a variation of it? |
 |
| Oct-11-10 | | blazerdoodle: Thanks Whiteshark... lol... I was staring at the board thinking why didn't he pick up the Bishop when I saw you'd pointed that out. Down here around level ""D"", we do need these things explained badly. That's no joke. |

| Oct-19-10 | | akale86: 3)..a6 alekhines variation |

| Nov-07-10 | | blazerdoodle: Thx. Thought so. I get crushed whenever I try it. |
