Parham Attack, greatest opening ever.

to paulgottlieb. if you answer 2.qh5 with 2...nc6 white can play 3.bc4 forcing 3...g6, or 3.bb5 keeping you on the defensive. as for the gavinator refer to my last post about your qsfl.

Some idiot played it against me in 7th grade. I had the bright idea to play Nc6 and was considered the biggest genius in the room for at least a few minutes there. Well worth it!
