I thought at first that the traxler would be a very bad opening for black, but against an amateur in blitz it is very effective. just look:
[Event "RHP Blitz rated"]
[Site "www.redhotpawn.com"]
[Date "2008.01.15"]
[White "name removed"]
[Black "timmydoza"]
[Result "0-1"]
[Variant ""]
[PlyCount "18"]
1.e4 e5 2.Bc4 Nf6 3.Nf3 Nc6 4.Ng5 Bc5 5.Nxf7 Bxf2+ 6.Kxf2 Nxe4+ 7.Ke2 Nd4+ 8.Ke1
Qh4+ 9.g3 Nxg3 0-1
I would never play the traxler otb with a gm though, even if i was one myself. what do you think of this game and the traxler in general?
