matein8's Playing against the Trompowski
Compiled by matein8
--*--

As a Nimzo Indian and Queen's Indian player, I find it annoying when White plays the Trompowski. I've noticed that GM Adams plays it as White so I think it must be a sound opening. Mcshane and Radjabov play it as well so I figure I'll have to learn to play effectively against it as Black.

Radjabov exchanges his Queen too early
Radjabov vs Leko, 2004 
(A45) Queen's Pawn Game, 45 moves, 0-1

Almost a King's Indian transposition; Adams loses to a Fork

2...d5 and a pawn sac ...c5 giving White an isolated c-pawn
