Has RoaringPawn Been Banned?:)
My yesterday's Pawns Adventures: Always Play from the Position of Strength blog has never showed up on the Blogs page. It did show up on the Today page for a while, then disappeared.
So I decided to create a shorty just to check the blog's status. With a Miniature in 19 from 1950. By Petro.
This was an easy blog. What they usually do is this, they pick up a game, put some comments, et voilà. I can do it, too! Or perhaps you may want some opening tricks and traps? No problem. Just let me know.
So here is a nice win by one of most underrated champions. Petro is a great legend of chess and his native Armenia (added are a few photos and cartoons of the Iron Tigran as well).
