what if white just doesn't kick the knight on g4 with h6? Seems like black just wastes a tempo. I know it's a chess trap but nobody is really going to take this stuff seriously...
@AtunHotepRe unfortunately i don't have an iPhone so I have no way to check if a video works on it or not. I assume its some kind of formatting issue? Or perhaps you can download an additional plug-in on whatever browser you use to play a different video type. If it helps, this video is in .wmv format
Nice vid. I generally never go for 'trap' lines, but this one seems to be perfect. I normally play Sicilian but I quite like the chaos that seems to follow from this, so I might have to try out 1...e5 for a change :)

I do like chess and Rambo.. But not together.. I guess this was an "inside joke" thing.. It would be better, if you made the clips like "Battle Chess".. Every time a piece was taken, then show a clip.. But, like "Battle Chess", it does get annoying..
the fishing pole is more of an attacking motif than an opening...N-KN5 followed by P-KR4 etc etc so it can be employed against any opening where the opposing king is castled (doesnt even matter if its queenside or kingside)
LM Jack Young plays the Fishing Pole as White in the Guicco Piano and calls it the Tombraider - with a Knight on King's Knight Five we often consider a castled King under that knight " in a coffin".
as part of brian's email chess blog he writes about chess games, they are usually really funny, he did an email on this game with quotes from rambo so we decided to do clips of rambo as part of the video as a joke :) you can subscribe to brian's email list by going to yahoo groups and searching brian wall chess
It was 5 times Denver Open Champ Chess Master Todd Bardwick that organized the LarryC simul and took the picture. My Fishing Pole with Christiansen ended in a draw.
I wrote a Chess email on this game at BrianWallChess at Yahoogroups a year ago.
Whenever I have computer questions I always run to a teenager. Thus it took Chris Peterson to make my vision complete.
I have felt for at least half a decade that the normal Chess video with just a chessboard or a Chessboard and a talking head was way too boring a way to demonstrate such a lively game as Chess.
For many years now I have struggled to present Chess in the most enteratining format possible. My Walverine website is full of poems, pictures, songs, amusing stories, etc.
My book How To Play Chess Like An Animal was designed for maximum Chess entertainment. That's just how I roll.
Stallone is Ok but my voice is deeper, my shoulders broader and I didn't dodge the draft in Vietnam.
You are the greatest chess player that ever lived. How you could create these amazing videos is beyond belief. The way you weaved Rambo into your analysis is pure genius. I wonder if you are as handsome as Sylvester Stallone. YO Adrienne!

Great video. Everytime I watch it I learn something new. You also have a wonderful speaking voice. And you are handsomer than Rambo.

I can't stop thinking of (Simpson's) Mr. Burns rubbing his hands and saying in that cruel, taunting way, "excellent!"
Great trap! Gotta practice it a bit, though.
My first impression is, let the knight at f3 fall (returning material) but, until I check it out, WOW!
You and JRobi have "untouchable free" material as far as I'm concerned!
5 stars and a fishingpole award for "shark" behavior!

gotcha -- i'll give it a go in some online games I have going... lots of trapping potential, it appears

personally I find it more difficult because after 1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Bc4 Nf6
4 d3 d6 5 0-0 Ng4 6 h3 h5
then t some point hg hg Ng5 attacking
f7 seems to be annoying. With a white knight on g5 and a white bishop on b5
they don't seem to coordinate as well to me.

I love the Rambo scenes mixed in with the lesson, but thought it was a bit much. Two or three scenes would have been enough.

I've been playing Chess so long that Chess is a languae in my head that permeates everything I do.

Chess is pure combat. I am sure Stallone has dreams of being as handsome as Brian.

Brian,
I just want to thank you for that AWESOME piece. That was beyond cool! I

500 pts online. Anyway thanks!! I will
start commenting more when my rating
is a bit more respectable.
