I was reading "Play the St. George Defence" when I started this one. I'm sticking to the Grob. I did get a couple of entertaining games out of it, including this one, which features a brief appearance of Alekhine's gun. I think the Mikey would be proud.

I'm guessing the "Alhekine's gun" is a triple battery of R+R+Q, is that true?

Indeed it is. Very useful if you can get it but in the real world it's about as elusive as a smothered mate.
