puffing on pipes and playing for the honour of who was the most daring! I love the
Muzio, but it needs a stout heart and a willingness to boldly go where no control freak
dares to go! Awesome game.

I'm guilty of twirling my mustache and smoking my pipe on a daily basis. Stout heart I simply make up for with a Stout Irish. Boldly go where no control freak dares? Hm. I'll substitute a bold Black Cavendish for that too.
Things have changed - but not too much. 🙂
P.S You can keep your Muzio

4. Bc4 g4
5. OO gf

chess, Reti and the hypermoderns? Karpov and the cautions defenders, the control
freaks of the age, who dare not give up a pawn for some vain glory of a king hunt?
Shame on the spirit of an age which has no romanticism and that has reduced the art
of chess to mere pedantry over pawns and pawn structures! good bishops verse bad!
here is the triumph of personality over materialism! behold as chess enters the realms
of metaphysics! behold the Muzio!

Originally posted by robbie carrobieCome join Gambit Fantasy Club 236, where your desire for KGA will satisfied! We have had loads of variations on KGA (muzio, fischer and more)... next King's Gambit on the plan is KGD 🙁 but it is a gambit KGD Nimzovich counter-gambit (1. e4 e5 2. f4 d5 3. exd5 c6) 🙂. Then later we will have a Wild Muzio and KGA Tumbleweed Gambit.
every one declined, what is the world coming to? The shame of it! rant over, thanks
for listening, have a pleasant day.
