I'm playing in this tournament and I'm booking up on 1.c4, against 1.e4 is Nf6, against 1.d4 is f5, against 1.Nf3 is e5.
I wish you all good luck!
Can the World Champion win WI Junior Championship? Perhaps not yet as Tommy Ulrich will be there.
Against 1.Nf3 is e5. Really You are going to gambit your e pawn???
I think he left that as a joke. Why would he give his actual repertoire away??
I wish I could play in this tournament, but I am in ATL until late Friday night.
1. Nf3 e5 2. Nxe5 Qe7 3. e4 Qxe5 4. c3 Qxe4+ 5. Be2 Nf6 6. O-O Ng4 7. f3 Nf2 0-1
Regarding -- "1. Nf3 e5 2. Nxe5 Qe7 3. e4 Qxe5 4. c3 Qxe4+ 5. Be2 Nf6 6. O-O Ng4 7. f3 Nf2 0-1"
What if Ben's opponents don't play this way? Maybe this works online. But some of our club players might not fall for this.
I uploaded the current wallchart and pairings for round 4 on my blog.
Glad to see Adream Liang having such a strong tournament.
Keep the updates coming Ben!
The only tournament where you can go +3 =2 -0 and still lose 10 rating points!
Drawing patzers does this, Troy!
I had 3 wins with 2 draws and only lost 4 rating points
james . .you're the only player i know who can finish 1/2 point out of first and lose rating points thats why i'm scared of you. . . oh btw. a happy belated 500th tournament to you too. 500 tournaments! no player i know has played the caro kann in 500 straight tournaments. .not even karpov has done this
Too bad USCF doesn't have MSA records of our tournaments before 1991 (this only applies to us oldies).
okay so troy can lost 10 pts but he's just a jr.
Troy played down for the entire event, losing 10 points is a blessing!
Wow, didn't mean to start anything here. I definitely wouldn't call these players patzers, they are young juniors that are rapidly improving and feasting on strong competition.
In fact, it was just a few short years ago that Troy himself feasted in similar manner!
