Nepo is always ready for a fight with either color. Ding takes his no 3 position seriously and plays sporting opening with black. I am hoping for a bloody affair.

That is, if both of them forget neighborly love.

Aug-23-19  Parachessus: I hope they open with my favorite, the Symmetrical Grob: 1. g4 g5.

  HeMateMe: I like the Larsen attack, 1. b3. It can be quiet or explosive.

  An Englishman: Good Morning: Happy Friday, all! Hope you're ready to see the Preston Ware Attack at the highest level! (it's 1.a4, in case you didn't know)
Aug-23-19  Ulhumbrus: Two examples of ways to answer the Nimzovich attack 1 b3 are Carlsen's insult 1...g6 and derision by imitation by 1...b6

  An Englishman: Good Morning: Of course, no one feels surprised that they played normal chess, right?

Dragon doesn't play sicilian dragon. Russian doesn't play Petroff either. They settle for no man's land; Italian. Good choice. Game on.

  An Englishman: Good Morning: 10...Qb8; 11.Nh4 has only precedent in the database, Tomas Sosa vs Andres Merario Alarcon, 2019. Rather good game by Sosa.
Aug-23-19  LameJokes: Nh4 takes away pressure on e5. So, d5 possible?

  An Englishman: Good Morning: And with 11...a4; 12.Nf5 we have truly entered No Man's Land. Good luck to both competitors.

  An Englishman: Good Morning: Um, OK. Either this is insane or it will soon dissipate into a draw. Looking at 27...Kxg7; 28.Rd7 and 27...Qg6!?; 28.Qxg6!?,fxg6; 29.Rd7.
