It's a pretty cool little Gambit, but it depends on him wiping out your two center pawns.

I got it off the Remote Chess Academy on YouTube, so maybe everybody knows it already.

I just realized I'm in trouble because I didn't lose my two center pawns. This is a first for me. 1200 is definitely another level, even though it's probably only 1100 tournament. I can't believe how much I'm learning and how much I have to learn.

I played the Pirc with the Moroczy into the Philador. My girlfriend will be impressed. The only fancy name I've ever been able to remember is the Fianchetta.
The fact that you have a girlfriend puts you in the 80th percentile on the life meter on chess.com. The fact that she is impressed by chess puts you in the 98th percentile.
Live long and prosper, my friend.

We never heard back from the original poster. I didn't mean to just take over the thread. François-André Danican Philidor (7 September 1726 – 31 August 1795), often referred to as André Danican Philidor during his lifetime, was a French composer and chess player. He contributed to the early development of the opéra comique. He is widely regarded as the best chess player of his age; his book Analyse du jeu des Échecs was considered a standard chess manual for at least a century. A well-known chess opening, an endgame position, and a checkmate method are all named after him.
This is what I was trying to do.
