Last time I checked, I thought black was supposed to take on d6 with the queen. At least that's what Jan Pinski said in his book.

What was wrong with just playing d5 and stopping the whole attack on the f7 pawn to begin with?

If there is a refutation to 1.e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nf6 4. Ng5 d5....someone please show it to me!

Dave

( who notes this game was lost from that one move! )

what about exd5 ...Nxd5 Qf3

EDIT: I am not saying that d5 is refuted here I am just saying that the Attack on f7 is still there.

Because you don't take back on d5...Nd4!

Look at it again

That would be 9..Qxd6. Pinski gives:

9..Qxd6 10. Nf7 Qc5 11. d3 e4? (Bg4) 12. c3? (b4) Bh4! 13. Be3 Bg4 14. Qa4+ Bd7 15. Nd6+ cxd6 16. Bf7+ Kxf7 17. Qxd4 Qf5+ etc...and black eventually won, but apparently it's unclear.

but then white has moves like d6, c3, and just a normal developing move like Nc3 would be fine.

The Traxler is unsound!

yeah that makes sense...it does look better than cxd6

I will play you one...I will have an opening in a little more than 2 hours. I will play as black of course.

It was actually a mental block. I had the drawing line all written out and then I clicked submit a little too fast.

I haven't annotated this game due to several other novelties in the Traxler that I'm working on. I'm trying to find the best line (which I think I now have) for white... something that saves the day 😛.

That is so not playable for black!
