I'm not gonna lie, I would have taken that bishop.

"Tennison Gambit Intercontinental ballistic missile variation" sounds so badass yet so sophisticated

I have played this gambit many times, and often my opponent loses because he didn't invest in nuclear missile defence systems. Always be prepared for nuclear warfare before playing chess

[kalpanapatel]

I love the opponent's name "Missile Recipient"

[KennyBky]

I actually discovered this move on my own by accident a few weeks ago. My opponent thought it was so impressive that when I had a mouse slip and fucked up taking the queen, he blundered on purpose so I could have my moment

9:38 "What is that? That is the ugliest set of pawns I have ever seen"

Well young sir... you have not seen everything I have then

[devagarwal]

Levy: Do you like aggressive openings?
Me: yes yes!

Levy few seconds later: You can turn this into the London

[kochevar]

“If you want to sacrifice three pawns for dubious compensation.”

I would like that very much.

3:39 just as a warning, this is sort of risky. In the rare event that this whole thing works, assuming that your opponent has fallen for this entire scheme up until now and then decides to awaken their inner 6th sense and git gud, then after taking the pawn Nc6 is a poisonous trap that wins the queen back after Nd5. Impossible that you’ll have gotten this far and then they play this, but now you know.

3:38 if you take the pawn, Nc6 traps the queen

I am 100% convinced that most of these names are made up and chess players just use them to intimidate each other

Ah yes, the RT-2MP2 Topol m cold-launched three-stage solid-propellant silo based intercontinental ballistic missile variant of the Tennison Gambit

3:40 Levy says to take the pawn after instead of the bishop. After taking the pawn, Nc6 traps the queen lol. Stockfish then gives the position -3.
