Why would anybody decide to go into possibly the sharpest opening in chess without any clue what they're doing!?

I played 9.Bc4 without thinking, and right after it thought - I meant to play 9.O-O-O...I guess 9.Bc4 may have been the better choice, since this guy seemed extremely confused. BTW, check out the blitz rating going up. 🙂

Playing an opening you don't understand is suicide in blitz.

You need to not be lazy and play 16 moves on your board.😳

Man.😀

Basically he sacked a knight and bishop for my h and g pawns.

Tried to push the h pawn moving his rook to h6 via e6 and then dropped his rook completely.

All in 16 moves.

It was funny how I uncastled my rook though.

You idiot, you messed up the pgn, but I was nice enough to play through everything anyway - here's the correct pgn, your error was 14.Nexg3 you had to put 14.Ne2xg3 because there are two knights on the e file.

Is 4.a3 a book move?

I don't think so.

But I like it in blitz, as the bishop is pesky on b4 and it keeps my opponent guessing plus it gives me a later scope for some serious kick ass with the queenside pawns.


Against a top quality player it might not be so good, but I don't play them.

What did you think?

Edit: Thanks.😀

Nice name for my opponent, he won his next game.

I think you had a clueless opponent who doesn't know the difference between a sacrifice and a blunder. 😛

A clueless 1500 rated opponent.

I think I've confused one opponent with discovered check as he seemed to have stopped moving.

I can just imagine him frustradly trying to move his pieces.😀
