Bongcloud

Bongcloud: Thematic Chess for April 2019. The Bongcloud (also known as the Boungcloud, or Bongwolke in German) is the type of rich opening that promises something for everyone. For the positionalist, White’s ambitious plan promises a game full of long-range novelties. For the tactician, some of the sharper gambit lines will leave him calculating to his heart’s content. For the endgame specialist, the complete flexibility in pawn structure leaves everything on the table. For the openings mad scientist, there is a wealth of unexplored passageways to delve. (5-days per move, open rating). Thank you & good luck.
