Crushing King attraction !

Here is an incredible  Morra Gambit trap I have played in a rapid game (2x20') in 2003 during the Twinings Olympiad in Biberach (Germany). Black was driven  by one of the young best Polish player at this time (I missed his name from my notes).   Please enjoy !

Please contact me if you wish to know more on the Morra and some of its crushing  traps!

yes, the Morra does tend to do that sometimes :)  I have 2.5/3 with it

Usualy, Morra's players we are all in front of 7...Ng4, and the famous plan 8.e6, etc... which is very common. But this day I had the opportunity to play this trap and to take some notes.

You play such a game , maybe a couple of time only in your life. But last year during the french championship open, I have played another trap very known,  but very short this time,  in normal OTB time.

Could you imagine my wife, when she saw me coming back with a smile, just after having left her for normaly 4 to 5 hours !!

I have been obliged to say "sorry" to my opponent, and leave quietly the playing room !
