Talk:Four Knights Game

Todo

• List some players who have used the Four Knights.
• Mention following variations and create appropriate redirects to Four Knights Game:
  • Metger unpin in symmetrical (classical) variation
  • Rubinstein variation/defense
  • Belgrade Gambit
• Possibly add a discussion of symmetry in classical variation including examining when Black can and should break symmetry. Fine has a good discussion of this in "Ideas Behind the Chess Openings", and I think it's still valid today.
  • Belgrade Gambit 4. d4 exd4 5. Nd5 Nb4 (possible Be7/Nxd5/Nxe4) 6. Nxd4 (Bc4 Nd4!?) unclear. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ChessCreator (talk • contribs) 15:58, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

The Rubenstein variation - (6.f4 Nxb5 7.Nxb5 d6) should be expanded as there is a potential trap here - 8. Nf3 Qxe4+ 9. Qe2 Qxe2+ 10. Kxe2 then if the 10th move by Black doesn't defend the c7 square (e.g. Nd5) then 11. Nxc7+ forking the king and rook - disaster. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.54.1.137 (talk) 20:13, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

4.Bb5 Bb4

Ain't that variation called the double Ruy Lopez, code C49 on the ECO? maybe that should be added to the article. 201.185.135.186 (talk) 16:18, 23 March 2012 (UTC)jparada201.185.135.186 (talk) 16:18, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
