well, according to im levy rozman there is a 26 moves sequence of engine theory where white gets a slight advantage but prob equal

Traxler is absolutely terrible

For c3, bishop g4 is trapping the queen and kxf2 is kind of worse than the first

i still prefer playing black for a reason.. first kick that knight then capture the pawn central one and target on f pawn and bring rook into the file.. king is safe lol

after all i got same position like that and opponent resigned when i kicked that knight brought rook into the attack.. all his queen side pieces sleeping.. queen soon came into the king side.. dark squared bishop controlling f pawn.. light squared bishop ready for hook pawn.. bye bye white king happy

btw i said right i lost one position out of ten

let me show you the position

complications complications.. i hate complications... i avoid them.. but complications likes me i cant avoid them lollllllllllllll nice dialogue right

i had so much time pressure as i i thought alot as traxler counter attack needs alot of depth thinking and by that time pressure played blunder

in twelveth move he captured with rook because if he captured with knight i would have gained alot of tempos

Now honestly, if you cannot win against a beginner's move like 8.Ke1?? then you'd rather play some other opening. The final position is won for Black (did you really lose this? how?), but only after both sides blundered several times.

I guess this was a blitz game, so all these terrible moves- no?

 

 

thank you so much sir for all these moves.. as i said its complicated sir.. i said right sir

however sir he had more material dont only think about that beginner move king e  one its actually an forced move.. of white

yes it was an blitz game.. its not an rapid right sir.. also sir if you see that last position black was winning.. as i said due to time pressure i lost sir

my dark squared bishop and rook were so active with + three pawns meanwhile their team with an extra minor piece just sleeping.. meanwhile played sort of mouseslip sir

After a few accurate moves and not being material greedy white has a large and comfortable advantage. I wouldn't use it in a long game but it's definitely deadly in blitz below let's say 2000 rating

ksh0924

I don't remember this exact game but I remember it has the same ending and same move count.

ksh0924

Also it's quite similar to the real one.

I just don't know where the king moved after I won the queen. lol

the wilkes-barre is probably the most beautiful opening there is. it captures the very essence of hyperfighting die-tryn chess...tactical chaos !
