Let's play some classical chess with 1. e4 e5, one of the oldest and best ways to begin the game. Both sides have a wide range of possible continuations, spanning all the way from the wildest attacking lines of the King's Gambit to the deeply complex positional lines of the Closed Ruy Lopez. Have fun!

 

The trophies are:

1st place: Paul Morphy

2nd place: Paul Keres

3rd place: David Bronstein

 

All three players were terrors with both sides of the Open Game.
