Destroying the unusual
Sort:
cool sac, but I don't remember playing any games where my opponent played 2...f6 which is just an awful move. I will keep this one in mind though in case I ever come across that. Thanks for the post
I've tried bringing my queen out early, but the beatings I received were just not satisfying enough. Now I think going for bringing my king out early is the way to go. It will save me on having to pay for . . . never mind.
There are some bad moves you made after the f6. 3. Nxe5 Qe7/Ne7 would keep the game closer. Then 6. Bc4+ Kg6 is what kills you. You have to do d5 and then Kg6 on the next move. Your still losing but it's not guaranteed.
Those are some very interesting points. I guess I still have some analysing to do. So Qe7 was best.
thanks

That is called the Damiano's defense. If Black knows the "main line", his king will survive - he will only be about five pawns down! lol. But the lines are not well known. There is a guy who plays that line 2...f6 with decent results, because he has studied the ins and outs of the line...Sam Sloan I think is his name.
I am amazed (read "shocked") to see a number of people, as black, who open a game 1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 f6?!?!?!. If you have ever come up against it, and wonder how to destroy it (after all, it's awful!), then just have a look. I have discovered a neat little piece sacrifice that leads to an attack on the black king. No complications, no variation spaghetti, just one daredevil playing black, and one person ready to destroy. You'll enjoy this one!!
