i find the montevideo retreat a nice way to win. (1.d4 nc6 2.d5 nb8), especially when i dont feel like playing the complications of 2.ne5. i think its more sound than the brooklyn alekhine.
There's an opening called the Montevideo? I need to check this out haha
i love the brooklyn alekhine 1.e4 1...Nf6 2.e5 2...Ng8 winning like this feels like heaven
I suppose you mean the "French Alekhine"?
there is only the alekhine chatard gambit in the french but i even gave the first moves
i dont know what you mean unless you toss out the first moves
I think that philidor defense players are disgusting. Lazy af!
You did the right thing.
you did not the right thing as long as your opponent plays legal moves he is doing everything ok
if you are too lazy too deal with offbeat lines it is your problem and your opponent can smile

Disgusting!
Ex Tennis Star Boris Becker played the Parham attack (that Qh5 stuff you described) in an exhibition match against Garry Kasparow, would have been pretty funny if Garry yelled disgusting! and stormed out of the room leaving becker the win no?
montevideo retreat i didnt even know the name of it nice, will try that one out-
the starting position is surprisingly solid lol
