C20 1.e4 e5: Unusual White second moves (1.e4 e5 2.d3 Nc6 3.g3)
I have kept climbing back up to where I once was in Chess.com's Online Chess ratings. I think I am 75 points behind my peak rating at the moment so I still have work cut out for me in order to reach new heights but if the games keep ending the way they have it should be only a matter of time when I get back to 1974 or somewhere around there. I have only moved in a couple of my games today and after I made a huge blunder which might very well mean the first loss for me in a Chess960 game, I thought I should take a break from moving and update the blog again. I have concluded 9 Chess960 games in my life and from those games I have 8 wins and one draw. That does not tell all that much from my abilities as a Chess960 player as my opposition has been mainly lower rated people. The game I am sharing now is one that features another offbeat opening that you rarely see played anymore. In all my games over the years I have maybe faced this line 10-20 times out of several thousand games. I have added a few more puzzles also today to mate in one, two and three pages. The beginner stuff I typed about yesterday will start appearing this weekend or that is the plan anyway.
