chess.com must be messing up. I dont see a game at all. I'll check back later.
Boog.
Latvian Gambit variations
Sort:
1.e4 1.e5 2.Nf3 2.f5 3.Bb4
That's has you lost Fefuric? I really thought the first two moves of the Latvian were understood.
Where did your moves 4 and 5 come from? Star Trek? Apparently White did not want to play 3. Nxe5 so he played 3.Bc4 instead. What's to understand? Looks like the Latvian Gambit to me.
I recently played a game against a 1550 player who decided to resign after 14 moves. The reason I am posting here is his move seems a very common response by players of the White pieces.
He played the move 3.Bc4. My idea is that when Black does win - chances are it is because White tries to risk too much or to get too much out of the opening. The first time I met 3.Bc4 I had to win in the endgame. White did not push too hard and kept me off balance most of the way. I managed a swindle in the endgame. He walked into it and resigned. I have never had that much trouble against the move Bc4, which looks strong for White but does not win (in my opinion).
As White, I would probably choose the main line instead.
