The h4 Tromp. Has it been killed?
I've always had a huge fondness for 1.d4 Nf6 2.Bg5 Ne4 3.e4, even though as a 1.e4 player I only ever used it in blitz games. I seem to recall that it was theretically dubious many years ago, and in r...

Nunn's answer to the Tromp

Trompowsky

Trompowsky 1.d4 Nf6 2.Bg5 Ne4 3.Bh4!?
Eric,
Bellon Lopez has made an interesting attempt to revive 3.Bh4 in the Trompowsky lately. Nigel Davies annotates some of those games in his new book. Any chance we'll be getting your take on t... Started 05/28/05 at 09:56:11 by RedIvan |

New idea in the Tromp with 2...Ne4 3.Bf4?
As I understand from previous threads the following is considered more or less as the main line:

Too much Tromp?!

Hodgson Attack
Can anyone enlighten me on how to defend against the Hodgson Attack (d4 d5 Bg5)? I didn't like the prospect of Nf6 allowing doubled pawns, but can't find much else better. Thanks for all the help.<b...

Hodgson Attack
I was wondering why the cumbersome name of Pseudo-Trompowsky is used so much for 1.d4 d5 2.Bg5
Wouldn't the "Hodgson Attack" be more appropriate and so much less pedestrian? We really ought ... Started 02/25/06 at 02:53:16 by Nietzsche « Pages 1 2 all » |

Tromp with 2...e6 3. e4 c5
