Originally posted by zach918I use it. I'd apreciate any and all feedback on it. I'll challenge you to a game, and if anyone else wants to give some input on the opening, I'm all ears. Lately, I've been leaning toward the exchange variation as white when given the chance.
does anyone, besides me, play this? if so, i have a good tip......

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 f5 4. Nc3! gives black a crap game and white all the attack......
The Schliemann is an exciting opening which gives both sides a chance to attack π
In the main line, 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 f5 4.Nc3 dxe4 5.Nxe4 d5 6.Nxe5! dxe4 7.Nxc6 Qg5!, a very sharp and interesting position is reached, which tests the knowledge and skill of both players π²
I would recommend the opening to tactical players looking for something a liitle different from the usual Spanish / Ruy Lopez π

I have a problem with the Ruy.
1. It is well known and people study what to do against it. When you go to a tourney you expect white to play e4 or d4 and so many players are prepared for the Ruy or Queen's gambit.
2. What do you do with responses like 1...d6 or 1...c5? You've now exited your favorite opening.
3. From what I understand you can play it against 1...e5 and that's it.
Any comments?
Don't take me wrong, I think it's a very powerful opening. I just had trouble with the idea that BLACK determined whether you could play it or not. π
in response to Dave Tebbs post:
After that line, there is some complications but I think white is still better he has got better pawns, and alotta times, with his open f-file, Bc4 and most of the time a knight on e5, black gets his king beat up like a little sissy.......I think instead of that Qg5 crap black should continue 4...fe 5. Ne4 Nf6 which I believe is a much better reply! Also, I think that instead of Qg5, Qd5 is good too........Just my thoughts, although you're prolly right!
