pick any opening not seen in Candidates or World Championship play.  Champions do not play bad (dubious) openings in matches concerning these tournaments.   

So you mean four knights game is dumb? Grandmaster don't play it because it's a very equal position so they mess up the tempo advantage as white. Drawing a game with black is usually good at this level. Four knights game is of course not a dumb opening. Stop saying king's gambit guys, and try to appreciate the immortal game. You're free to say it but that's not my opninion

wow, you do not know what you are talking about.  Four knights game recently played in 2018 FIDE Candidates Tournament.  Kramnik-Aronian 1-0.  i never stated anything was "dumb"; so thanks for twisting my words.

I always hear grandmasters say that too symmetrical positions aren't played at a high level. Also, gimme a break I started chess at the end of 2019

What is interesting?

Avatar of cookie3

why should i give you a break when you were rude to me.  you misspoke. plain and simple.  then you twisted my words.  this has nothing to do with when you started playing chess.

Probably that's becoming a misunderstood, sorry

i confused between dumb and dubious and I meant that I wasn't watching chess in 2018. Only

This is the tension gambit

Tennisonn gambit is indeed an interesting pick if black dooesn't fall for the traps white might not be able to use the little compensation for the pawn(s). It's a kind of reversed budapest gambit

Most dubious real openings:

1) Owen's Defense

2) Milner-Barry Gambit

3) St George Defense

4) Scandinavian Defense, Bank Variation (3...Qd8)

5) King's Gambit

I've faced 1 and 4 many times.

And you should get the positional advantage out of it

I DO win most of the time, although in my rating range it's EXTREMELY common

I have a bad score against St. George's defense, I think... lol

Avatar of icositetrachoron

Is the standard Scandinavian Defense any good?
