The Grob

The Grob is a good technique to use against experienced players. It starts with the ugly 1. g4 move, but proves lethal unless your opponent knows it. Perhaps it would work on a Grandmaster........

wow! i can't wait to hear what billwall has to say about the grob! bill, show us some games?? :)

Yea that would be exciting.Go bill

There are plenty of Grob addicts at the corr site redhotpawn.com

 

Some of them are pretty darn good players (i.e. they will beat you despite a odd Grob opening). I found a book on Grob (Killer Grob?) in a 2nd hand book store. It is a well written book but it did not turn me into a "grobber".

OK, here you go.  Here are the first historical 50 games with 1.g4, first played in 1866.
