So Nf6 then?

Re: Chess Talk (Canada) vs Space Chess (Germany)

Hi Alex:

I think you meant 2.Nf3 ( not Nf6 ). And I think you are correct - that has the most votes.

Hi Alex,
You wrote 2.Nf6??, as above, that is incorrect to make.Our team play white in this match. Could you straight that out?

Yes, 3.d4 - if we have a mainline Sicilian more people might contribute.

I vote 4.Nxd4 ( surprise? ).

[Jason Manley]

Re: Chess Talk (Canada) vs Space Chess (Germany)

I vote 4 Qxd4, to provoke 4...Nc6 when we can play 5 Bb5, when 5...Qa5; 6 Nc3 Qxb5?! leaves Black with an awkward position after 7 Nxb5 Nxd4 8 Nfxd4. In the very least we might surprise them.
