Feb-09-06 | | dbquintillion: you are my new hero <notsodeep> |
|
Apr-15-06 | | Confuse: <KetchupLover> The symbol for sodium is Na - OMG I GET IT NOW :D thanks! |
|
Jun-23-06 | | McCool: I using this opening all the time now. |
|
Sep-02-06 | | Tariqov: Isn't this a draw?
|

 | | Benzol: I don't think Black can build a fortress. 76...♖f6 77.♕e8 ♖f5 78.♔e6 ♖f6+ 79.♔e5 is a possible continuation. |
|
Oct-14-06 | | CrystalFrost: People should call this game the "Na" opening |
|
Jan-16-07 | | The Chess Express: I think 51. ... c6 followed by 52. ... cd was dubious. Why did black give white a pawn majority on the queenside when white's king was better placed than black's? TCE |
|
Jul-13-07
 | | FSR: Maybe Black flagged and that is why it was 1-0? |
|
Jul-15-07 | | The Chess Express: <Willem Wallekers: 5 ... Ng4 is unjustified, Black losing as many tempo's as White did.> I agree. The simple 5...d6 was better. |

 | | chancho: I played Santana twice. (Don't ask how I did) |
|
Jul-20-07 | | The Chess Express: White should be able to attack g7 twice with ♔ & ♕. |
|
Jul-20-07 | | CapablancaFan: The Sodium attack? 1.Na3? Is that right? |
|

 | | WannaBe: Pun potential... "O. Santana, don't you cry for me." |
|
Jul-20-07 | | The Chess Express: I'm not sure that's a pun. It sounds more like a rhyme to me. |
|
Apr-16-08 | | kevin86: How about calling this opening "the Nadia attack"-since Nadia begins with Na also? Also,in a lot of cases,the result has been a perfect 10 for white. (frankly,in this game,the two connected pawns in the ending are far more a reason for the win as is the first move-but don't let it get around,lol) |
|
Apr-16-08 | | kevin86: Note:rechecked the database---1 Na3!!!!!!!!!!
Six victories in six games! |
|
Oct-20-08 | | flapjack: This was a great fight! More proof that the best opening for winning % is Na3. ;D |
|
Dec-27-08 | | WhiteRook48: 1. Na3!! that is the ultimate move. Seriously.... |
|
Dec-27-08 | | arctic tern: <The symbol for Sodium is Na :)> Oooooh, that's why it's called the sodium attack... shame on me for not seeing that! |
|
Jan-05-09 | | WhiteRook48: 1. Na3!! wins every time |
|
Nov-11-09 | | The Chess Express: heh heh, objectively speaking black gains easy equality out of the opening. 1. Na3 is simply a way to avoid theory. |
|
Dec-29-13 | | fishcat: Yep, it's a fortress. White can even take the h-pawn with 76...Rh6 77. Qe8 but then it's a tablebase draw. Stockfish+syzygy insists it's +5.43 until the halfmove clock runs out or it enters tablebases. |

 | | perfidious: Been around and seen a lot, but had never heard of the Sodium Attack till this moment. |

 | | An Englishman: Good Evening: 1.Na3 is not that ridiculous a move (if 1...d5; 2.c4), but still a tame one. 5...d6 will suffice for equality but even after 10.0-0 the position is equal; 10...f5; 11.exf5,Bxf5; 12.e4,Be6; 13.Qd2,Qe7; 14.Ng5?!,Bd7 and White still has nothing but a bad Bishop. |
