    Idea: do a stream with someone where you explore a specific opening and play games only with that opening. Give in depth explanations of the main ideas in the openings and maybe go over a few main lines in that opening.

    Hey! Eric and Aman! the 1.Nc3 e5; 2.e3 d5; 3Qh5 - is a Cerro-Torre or Dunst in other name, I play it a lot back in early 1990's in Romanian Cup (corespondence) with positive results. I think black best aproach is gambit one pawn and try to get initiative, but with white I manage quick piece excenges, damage the stucture in black residence and win the end-game with the extra pawn

    @MrEliott0 3 роки тому

    Thank you for the numerous traps you have shared, very useful and easy to follow. An observation: "Greek's gift" is not accurate; it should be called "Greco' gift" as Italian Mr. Giochino Greco (1620 !!) devised it first together with many others traps. Not referring to the original Greek gift that was the horse hiding the worriers, while here is the Bishop sacrificing himself. Keep up the good work, thank you again
