Oct-07-06    WTHarvey: Here are some puzzles from C04 miniatures: http://www.wtharvey.com/c04.html Nov-10-09    Robin01: I recently faced this line with the white pieces OTB. It was a new experience for me. I noticed a couple of games in the database. However, I played 6.h3 in this position for white. After 6...Nh6, I then continued 7.c3. It was an interesting game and ended in a draw. Has anyone else faced this OTB? click for larger view Nov-10-09    AnalyzeThis: I remember facing the Guimard, and didn't know what to do. My opponent got in a quick e5 break, and equalized. So, I figured out a scheme to trade queens, and keep the game equal, and managed to outplay the guy in the endgame. But, I was very impressed with the opening concept. May-22-12    optimal play: <Robin01> 5...Ng4 in your diagram looks odd compared to the usual 5...Nd7 although it still might be better than 5...Ne4 which I encountered once...
