True he should think twice against a high rated player but the i am a firm believer that the best moves are not always the most sound or best objectively, but should be subjective depending on your opponenets strengths
IE, here, a 1400 player will probably struggle against the restrictive nature of the e5 move, how will he handle the advanced and invasive pawn, restricting mobility where white already has a massive advantage in development through the nature of the gambit? To take even slight advantage of such an inferior move you have to be playing, for at least a game, on 2000 plus standard surely

Maybe he doesn't speak english. Anyway only about 30% of active members post in the forum. There are probably more inactive users that post than active ones π

Originally posted by orion25 i think its much less. maybe 10%?
I'd say it was even less than that. If you look at the player table and sort it by "moves played this month", it's easy to see that there are over 10,000 players who have played at least ten moves this month. I don't know of a way of finding how many people have posted to the forums recently, but I bet it's not much more than 100.
