I don't think the mainline is the best line of play #1

I find most players avoid the Ruy Lopez as White #2

I have never had the opportunity to play the Marshall on Chess.comĀ #3

BillyIdle -

#1 What variation specifically you think is better? By the way GMs are playing mainline. You can organize another tournament with 11... Nf6 or 12. d3.

#2 You can't force them, right. Consider yourself lucky every time you play it ( if you do ). That's why I organized this tournament ( and I have to play White too, not only Black :) ).

#3 I played more than 30 Marshall games on FICS, you know that one?
