  Sally Simpson: See H Brechin vs J Aagaard, 2007 for the background to this game.
Jan-06-24  goodevans: I quite like this game.

H Brechin vs J Aagaard, 2007 is better but less punable. Two games for the price of one?

Jan-06-24  Teyss: Didn't know this opening and don't think I'll try it as White. Maybe Miguel Carballo Noya, non-rated, wanted to surprise Jacob Aagaard, then rated 2477. Well, it was a surprise.

Only 31 games in the DB with 3.b4. After 5...Nc6 we're in unknown territory. 5...e6 is the move of the only other game, ending with a White win: M Bach vs O E Frisvold, 2015

Cute pun, fitting because it's the first game between the two players. It's actually their only game together. It's actually the only game of Miguel Carballo Noya. After this rout he went back to Spain where he now enjoys the collection of single malts he bought during his trip.

Could also have been "Getting to Noya Opening".
