RHP JG Tourney Round 1 Games (1)


In the ongoing RedHotPawn.com Jerome Gambit thematic tournament previously mentioned, a couple of kinds of players need to be mentioned: those who join because the opening looks new and interesting or challenging or fun; and those who join because they have some knowledge of the opening, and want to test their understanding against others.

The first kind can quickly come undone, as sacrificing a piece or two is very risky, if it only leads to an "unclear" position. The second kind can stretch the knowledge of the opening - especially if they are paired against each other.
