is this Abbazia Defense actually playable? after the queen comes out, the knight develops with tempo, it doesn't look sound at all...
nice game though. a pity he fell for the one move trap at the end...but game was over already, i think, when he snatched the pawn...

Actually I didn't give my Queen away... his bishop is pinned.

It was somewhat quicker time controls 15/0 but it was just a skittles game. 4...Qxd5 was quite a shock to me the first time my opponent played it too. I would play 4...Nf6 there but thats just me.
