Then I found out it was a real opening, looked at the theory, and saw that it ended up looking like a Falkbeer, which I hate. I was very excited a little over a year ago when I "discovered" this opening on my own and thought I had developed something really cool, sort of like a King's Gambit but not necessarily as risky. Resignation Trap: The so-called "Wurzburger Trap" goes 1.e4 e5 2.Nc3 Nf6 3.f4 d5 4.fxe5 Nxe4 5.d3 Qh4+ 6.g3 Nxg3 7.Nf3 Qh5 8.Nxd5! For a severe example, see: Sax vs P Petran, 1973. I would'nt reccomend playing it unless you are familiar with all variations surrounding this opening.Ĭrptone: Anyone know what the "Wurzburger trap" is? Many people know some lines, but not many, and it's an effective tool against theoretical players, which are popping up more and more.ĬapablancaFan: The Vienna Gambit is a tricky opening. TheKid: I'm actually leaning towards this opening instead of the Spanish or Guico Piano. If my opponent plays a weak move I can exploit it immediatly, but solid (endgame) players, some kind of Tigran style, have a big plus against me. To push it to the limit, I also play the Double Muzio. It is my trusted weapon for many years, and I use it agains unknown players to estimate his skills. The King's gambit is the real opening to play. I should mention that the Vienna is really just for the cowards who are too scared to play the King's gambit and so throw away white's opening advantage.ĭeepBlade: I agree, the Vienna is dead even. I've found this to be a formidable weapon against many opponents.Ĭondor: When I have to face the Vienna gambit as black I like to play 4.d5 5 fxe5 Nxe4 5 d3 Bb4! which leads to 6 dxe4 Qh4+ 7 Ke2 Bxc3 8 bxc3 Bg4+ 9 Nf3 dxe4. Granite: A very enjoyable gambit that gives white a lot of the same ideas in the kings gambit but without as much danger. It is a very good opening as Spielmann shows in his games. The games are less drawn then won, which is always good. I also find the Vieena to be quite exctining to play, even though I'm not a regular on it. I think it is a good way to decline the Viena. It allows him to attack the center and open lines for both bishops. Giancarlo: 3.d5 is a very good follow up by black. It allows white to shuffle his king about quite safely, and will be very well positioned if a queen exchange is brought about. It would be helpful to fix it to avoid confusing people. Tintin: - have you noticed 's comment pointing out that there should be no pawn on d5. Vischer: The picture doesn't match the notation, Sylvester: Hey ksadler! You were suggesting the opening of the day! I am checking it out. PVS: Take a look at Pollock vs Bird 1895, it involves the same set-up, the key is the white queen capturing the rook on a8. Pawntificator: Could you find an example game with the trap in it? A candidate master!! For goodness sakes! I think I would have given up everything to pursue chess if I had been you. By the way, I am old enough that I played the Scotch Game a few years before Kasparov revived it. When I became a candidate master I would still dust it off now and then when I got sick of the Scotch Game. It almost always worked against players rated 1200-1400 or so. I found it in a book of chess traps and then looked it up in MCO. PVS: This is the first opening I learned by name. Explore this opening | Search for sacrifices in this opening.ģ.
