    Wow, that is pretty bizzare/funny.  I think Qxd4 is what's truely bizzare behavior for a 1327.  White limits his chances of winning to only about 23% with that move.  Classic example of what happens when Queens come out too early.

    Actually Qd5 was the real stinker

    nice mate though, a lot of people would overlook that

    You both played better than I would in a 1 minute game.

    Yeah 3. Qxd4 is a pretty common continuation after 2. d4 (which is obviously very attacking in itself). I like playing against it, since it seems to hand the initiative straight to black in exchange for an open game. 3. Nf3 is probably better. Also, I'd say the real stinker was 18. Qb1??, for an obvious reason.
