I favor unorthodox openings, as these have given better results than more conventional lines. 1.a3 is a ready line for me (I've faced, no joke, every opening reply by Black against it--even Nh6 on one occasion) as White; I prefer to play as Black if given the choice (I find playing Black more versatile).

schnarre: Got this one in short order... I had looked at Nd7+ as well, but found it lacking after closer scrutiny. I looked at the possible Queen sac by 19. Nd7 Ka8, 20. Nxf8 Nxe6, 21. Nxe6 Qxh3, 22. Nxf4 & White has N+R+B for the Queen--rendering ...Qxh3 pointless for Black. If White can ...

schnarre: The fork 57...Ne7+ is easy to spot. Underpromoting to a Knight helps evade it.

schnarre: Talk about "sac-&-attack"! White turns out to have just enough material for the win.
