I think that might be me...well now I have extra incentive to win this game for POG.
Im only something like 1700 but I actually have a chance to play against an IM who wants to beat me. Im going to do MY BEST to beat curtains.

EDIT: I PROMISE NOT TO USE A PROGRAM.

Why do I have a feeling that the latest version of Fritz just got fired up.

Good thing we all get a vote in this game. My moves, once the opening is over, won't be found in any computer unless its defective. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

lol damn my ignoring doesn't work if someone else quotes him. I don't really care if I beat you, I just wish you'd learn something before slandering other people's name for absolutely no reason.

What was especially stupid about the whole thing is that almost everyone knows that I rarely play MTTs.

[curtains]

btw you are lucky Im v honest. I have a rooting interest in most of the polls about what moves to play, but I always just click on the results button.

Yeah, exd4. Thought about the e4 line, but the threat of nc3 + Bg5 isn't nice.

That can be handled - we can play Bb4. But Qb3 after that isnt nice at all.

I think we should definitely play exd4.

d5 is super-standard here.

There's also moves like Be7 but that's really just delaying d5.

[LuckayLuck]

d5.
Stick it to the man!

[ChrisV]

I really don't see any remotely sensible moves other than d5 and Be7. Chuckles I think you should probably just put the poll up with those two.
