Hey Dan, I wasn't gloating!! It's just that u didn't seem to be so generous when we played, a few years ago. But yeah, it's high time for a rematch...

[Dan74]

Well... I guess I was still too generous (or too stupid)!

Guy,

1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nf6
3. Nc3 Bb4

[catmoon]

Does this opening have a name? 3 Knights or something? It's been a long time....

[Dan74]

I think it's Petrov, but it might've transposed to three knights in the current position, I am very rusty myself. Google it, I say!

PS In (serious) response to your earlier question, I don't think have a rating anymore. I used to play a fair bit and played two or three tournaments but the last one was over 10 years ago. Since then I have probably played less than half a dozen games in total.

[Guy]

1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nf6
3. Nc3 Bb4
4. Bc4

[Guy]

After the first 2 moves it is Petrov's Defence, after 3. Nc3 it is "Russian-Three Knights Game" - First time I've played it.

[Dan74]

1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nf6
3. Nc3 Bb4
4. Bc4 o-o

[catmoon]

That can't be right

The game says e4 e5

Petrov is e4 e6 right?

[catmoon]

Oops sry nvm!

[Guy]

1. e4 e6 is French Defence
