On a similar line, has anyone by any chance managed to see a TV show called 'The Queen's Gambit'.

Roy Lopez, Yeti and Castillian Defence.... all top openings apparently.

I suppose it shows my age that for years every time I saw more than 2 computer screens on anyone’s desk I would simply say to them “Wargames”... not sure if anyone got it though... :down:

Same - I type Play GlobalThermoNuclearWar into a command line and get strange looks.

Really?

Thanks for that.

The Castillian, or is it Sicilian?

It's Sicilian which can also be varied to an Open Sicilian - Maybe being confused with a move called castling where king and castle can both be moved in one go

The Queen's Gambit - Even if you know naff-all about Chess it's still a good watch
