No. Did you want to go that route? I agree that Queens Gambit Accepted is pretty boring, but when I'm rusty, I get boring. I don't mind going back and playing Indian, though.

Here you go, Steve. Choose your own adventure.

OR

1. ... Nf6

Play whichever board you want and we'll go from there.

Just teasing about the Bogo, mone -- you played it last time against Larry and he commented about how much he hated it.

Would you check your position, mone?

I have you as not having moved your e-pawn, so it's still on e7 here.

Mone, this is where you argue that Steve's got the board position all wrong, and that he not only no longer has a d-pawn, but no longer has a queen.

D'oh. Holy shit. I reset up my practice board wrong when I brought it in this morning, doing 2... e6 instead of c6. Steve, do you mind if we take it back to move four? You must have been wondering what the hell I was doing moving c5. Christ. Really sorry about that.

The sad part is that I was thinking my position wasn't so great and Steve didn't even know what my position was!

Damn! I kind of liked that other position! I thought you were just blazing new trails in opening theory.

Nice, Larry. A friend I used to play by e-mail with would put exclamation points after certain moves. His way of trash-talking.

8.O-O?? a5!!
