if you are going to play the owens beware of this trap

Any time White can unmask the f7 square early in an opening, it usually nets a fast win unless Black can get Ne7 immediately and is willing to castle long. Great example of the opening trap to the Oewn as well.

Here is a better handling of the Owen than the last time i played it. 10/0

 

Bill_C, in the previous game posted, 60. Qxa2+ wasn't a good move. Instead white should play 60. Qe5. Just keeping the king occupied should prevent pawn promotion. Or perhaps Kxf5. Anyways white eventually wins. Good play!
