I often spend 10 minutes or so a day on the Games Explorer picking
openings and variations at random just to what happens.

(Explorer needs updating - petition started in Site Ideas please add a name)

Sometimes I unearth a mini masterpiece.

Why do you think White plays 1.e4 2.Bc4 3.Qh5?

What possible plan or idea do they have in mind?

I used to think it was going for the Scholars mate on f7.
I'm wrong. (play out the whole game - it's only 11 moves).



That Knight fork pattern brought back a wee memory.
This one is 8 moves featuring yours truly as Black.
