Bashing Gambits: Poetry Style

Sort:
StrategicusRex

A little poem I whipped up!  I don't really despise gambits, but they do irk me.  I did this for entertainment and because I was bored.  I hope you all find it somewhat entertaining.

 

Also, before reading this poem, you must sign a waiver absolving me of any responsibility for the numerous injuries that I will bestow upon you should you choose to hunt me down and "teach me a lesson".  Ha ha, just kidding.

 

Gambits.  I hate them, I hate them both ways.

Playing with and against them is a huge craze.

Down in material, but with a massive attack?

Ah, but it's the eye for tactics that I lack!

 

I despise the King's, and the From is a pest

I also hate the Benko and the Budapest.

The Falkbeer and Albin both are just nuts,

And the Duras looks like the work of a klutz!

 

The Blackmar-Diemer is annoying as heck.

The Englund and Soller are pains in the neck.

I hate the Alesi, Hobbs, Borg, Wing, Schneider,

Muzio, Latvian, Evans, and Ryder,

 

The Halloween, Gibbins, Staunton, and Krejcik,

The Halibut, Icelandic, Irish, Hartlaub-Charlick,

The Omega, Omega-Delta, Danish, and Goring,

The Ross and the Queen's, which can get quite boring,

 

The Lohn, Blackburne-Kloosterboer, Gaga,

Benoni, Comorant, Herrstrom, Smith-Morra,

All of these gambits annoy me so much,

Especially the ones against my beloved Dutch.

 

Here ends my raving on these plays

Although I really could bash them for days.

Thank you for letting me tell the facts

On what I think of these darn "sac attacks".
