An interesting opening trap.

I have used this combo in different parts in the game and in different positions. It's nice to know because you can avoid getting trapped yourself. 1.e3, f6 2.Bd3 (unless Black opens up the king, or moves f5, g6 or h5: it's mate in three with either a Q or B sacrifice by moving White's Q-h5, then digging in through the only deffense Black has. Just figured I'd let y'all know 'bout this one.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
