The Brick is discussed extensively at
www.walverine.comwww.ChessBrianWall.com http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/BrianWallChess/joinInventer - old friend Jack Young
the idea is
1 e4 c5 2 Nh3 d5 3 d4 albin reversed with Nh3 thrown in
1 e4 c5 2 Nh3 d6 3 g4 Nf6 4 g5 N:e4!! 5 d3!!
Popovych - " I saw that!"
Lately I have refined it to an art form with
1 e4 c5 2 Nh3 and I move my knight to f4 as soon as possible for a real black mindcrappity smack.
I follow up with g3, Bg2, Nc3
then I have h4 versus 0-0 option or both plus d3,Be3 option or b3,Bb2 depending on how much of wienie my opponnet is.
Basically Black is in shock and responds feebly with standard ideas. I pick up the pieces of their shattered pysche, laugh heartily and post their failures to the world.
