Play online chess |  Subject: Ponziani Opening
Message:
I could have included this in the unusual openings thread but I think this is so unusual and yet so playable it deserves a thread of its own. I have just annotated a game where I played against the Ponziani and won - I called it "A Ponziani Opening". Has anybody played this opening or played against it?
I will be interested to hear your views.
Hope you are having a nice weekend!
Bye for now.

His success followed his tie for first place in the Moscow Open, another GM-heavy chess tournament, a day before the start of the Aeroflot Open. Entering the last round of the Aeroflot Open, Le shared the lead with his countryman Nguyen Ngoc Truong Son, 19. Le defeated 2009 winner Ian Nepomniachtchi (Russia), while Nguyen lost to GM Anton Korobov (Ukraine), who took ...
