scandinavian chess opening

Look man...instead of trying this weird reverse psychology on me you better go back to your topic...this was only about the scandinavian defence...

I'd ask a moderator to close this topic...It starts to be too smart for me.

Steve, is this a wind-up?

Where it's at here, is you started a topic on the Scandinavian defense.

Quite a fine aggressive response to P-K4 or e4 IMO. d4. Shall we play? The White pawn takes on move 2.

TBH, I think the best Black can do is draw.

I have been playing around with the Scandi defense.

Everywhere I go with it, it leads to a solid but cramped position for Black. Bit like the French defense. e4-e6.

You spend far too much time withdrawing that premature Queen move.

My preferred response to e4-d5 is e5 and duck the pawn swap. Gets White an advanced strong double central pawn structure and easy rouitine piece development. After that, Black is even more horribly cramped.

In other words, whatever you do as Black, you are always behind in something.

and black goes to d4 , bishop fo f5 then pawn e6.here's not a great example as the guy played really bad...but just to have an idea:

Game on!

I don't like that that White 3 Q-f3 move. Seems to fall into the trap of exposing the Queen too early. I'll have a punt on 3 P-f4, supporting my leading pawn. I don't feel under great pressure at this point.

i don't take more than 10 seconds to analyse a position...i don't see more than two moves ahead...never!

Sometimes you must take time with difficult positions.

I can see where this is going. I am going to attack you on f7 with a Knight and Bishop, the weakest square on the board. You must defend your weak pawn on d4.

This is a new game to me, TBH. But looks like fun.
