NM Nelson Lopez was WRONG about the fried liver
What I want to make clear is the fried liver is bad for white. But an NM just told everyone on his youtube channel to throw away their additional advantage as black when their opponent plays the Fried Liver.
First off, the opening. And remember, when the game started, it was +0.3
After d4, exd4, everything seems fine for black with Nelson’s advice.
But what the heck is knight d4.
I am begging you for an explanation of how and why this came over your mind. What the censored is this.
c6 kicks the knight to ONE SQUARE. That one square happens to block the bishop’s diagonal, which you JUST OPENED WITH E5. And you know how you shouldn’t move your piece more than once in the opening? Let me count how many times you move that knight. That’s the same reason I’m gonna be ranting about the Alekhine soon. One. Two. Three. A kindergartner can count to three but sadly a National Master in his 30s can’t. And then, all you have to do is watch your opponent castle to safety as all your pieces are in the back rank. Oh, and what did Nelson say in his video about white in his crazy variation? “All his pieces are in the back rank.” Ok buddy. Ok. You broadcasted this video to MILLIONS of people saying nd4nd4nd4nd4 yapping for 10 minutes about how good Nd4 is, but BAM! a 600 elo just shut you down with a blog. See for yourself guys, and just like he said, don’t panic when they play Fried Liver attack, but always remember. Don’t play Nd4. Bye, and stay tuned!
