Traxler Counterattack Challenge

Sort:
ErnstStavroBlofeld1

I will send a challenge with the position starting with the Traxler Counterattack of the Two Knights Defense to the first three people who want to play.  I will play two games as black and 1 game as white.  The time control will be three days per move. 

In case you don't know this is the starting position of the Traxler Counterattack

I'll play if the game is long enough. I've ran out of vacation, will probably play quick but don't wanna run out of time. 10 days would be nice but I won't take more than a day very often.

Obviously I wanna play white because this is garbage for black. Unrated please.

Scott, what happened to your diamond membership?...

  The games will be unrated but there will be no vacation time.  Just 3 days per move.

I'll play.

One more person can play.  I will play white that game.

Does anyone want to play black with the Traxler Counterattack?  I need one more player.

I have three players now for the challenge.  I will issue another three player challenge sometime after this one is over.

It's garbage for black, but very fun in blitz if white goes Nxf7.

No vacation?

ErnstStavroBlofeld1

I realised that I don't think you can turn vacation off when you challenge someone to a game.

Interesting game.

Here is another completed game.  I only have one more to go.
