Kibitzer's Corner
Dec-20-04   erasmus: there's something wrong with the picture. This will arrive after the player's have followed the main line continuing with 5. d4 exd4 6. cxd4
Feb-28-05   rochade18: it is not really wrong, you will often see that - but if hitting "explore this opening" it will be ok
May-31-08   ruelas007: My favourite opening and the least kibitzed?
Aug-08-09   SamAtoms1980: Opening of the Day, when I have the white pieces this is often the way I go.
