Originally posted by PacifiqueYou numbnuts, I judged with my own brain that the masters who say 3...d5 is the best defensive move in the Ponziani opening are correct. I only said I could not explain why 3...Nf6 is not quite as good. That does not mean I am incompetent to judge with my own brains. You probably did not even understand the video on it anyway. You definitely ain't no master chess player.
You did admit that you lack knowledge to jugde with your own brains. It means you are incompetent Mr.Cheating Ron

If you can't understand that, then why is it any wonder that I can't explain it to a numbnuts. Not that I am admitting to it, but being a a liar, cheater, hypocrite, and a total retard is not as bad as being a total numbnuts, like you. Ha! 😏

3....Nf6 v 3....d5
I wondered what the really good guys played when faced with the Ponz.
So I checked on games from Informator which usually gives just GM and IM games.
It would appear it is a 6 and two 3's reply and it all depends on your style.
Players who you think would fight for the initiative as Black tend to favour 3...Nf6.
Dueckstein - Larsen, Le Havre, 1966
Minev - Sax, Baja 1971
Velimirovic - Tal, Yugoslavija-USSR, 1979
Makropoulos - Matanovic, Rome, 1981
Kuijf (2490) - Anand (2555), Wijk aan Zee, 1990
Anand then in 1990 was a fighter that is why I have left his 1990 grade.
Now of course he is adaptable in choosing who to mix it with.
These players all chose 3...Nf6.
If your style is to equalise first as Black then we all know who is the leader in this strategy
Anatoly Karpov.
And indeed in Ljubojevic - Karpov, Ljubljana, 1975 Karpov played 3....d5.
So all done and dusted? Probably not.
The Ljubojevic - Karpov game produced a flurry of tactics which 3....d5
players perhaps hoped they might avoid.

Originally posted by kingshillYeah, when we first played you told me you always played the f5 move against the Ruy Lopez. I had played against that before, but I always listened to the idea that the best way to refute a gambit is to accept it. But when I had accepted it in the past, the attacking possibilities against Black's kingside always seemed to hard to resist. With best play on Black's part, my attack would soon run out and I found myself defending against an advanced pawn that cramped my position.
Only wish we could ban the word 'Psy@~😠:ical'..!!
I play Nf6 on here and over the board. I'm also happy to play f5 over the board as it get me the type of position I like and I'm comfortable with.
In your case I looked at how some others handled that defense against you and checked a few opening books and decided on one that turned out better, but I could still only get a draw. I finally found one that apparently worked on you psychology and allowed me to be victorious. Oh the glory of it! 😏
