Anderssen's Opening!

eeehhhh... I once played the grob. I was playing about a million games against this completely terribly player, had nothing better to do. I mean completely terrible. Like, it was "nothing-better-to-do-right-before-a-tournament" and I think out of about a dozen games, I drew one, and lost one.

The one I lost?

I tried the grob.

Never again 😵

Wel,, the other thing I forgot to say is that the player who uses the Grob, had better really know his Grob!

I think I know the mainline grob pretty well...

1. g4 0-1

That's about it, isn't it? 😀

Lol......it's not all that fearsome if you know how to play against it. Here's a good page about the Grob:

No your wrong actually, i've met him at my chess club, it did happen. I have the game on my database but my home machine has died. I'll see if i can find it online if i have time.

Here is the game: http://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1068157
