    It has that suprise factor to it especially if it a blitz game.
    I often play the Albin, but it's not sound. Usually I lose but it's such a lot of fun with some simple ideas - stick the d-pawn down his throat, whack up the h-pawn and mate the sob. It's a go-for-broke kind of opening because if you don't mate you tend to get your head handed back to you on a plate.
