Bird’s Opening (7), opponent’s first USCF game.

Today’s blog entry is from round 1 of the second Lowry Grand Prix tournament. The clock is G65 with 3 second delay. My opponent was the Dad of a scholastic player.  His previous chess experience was mainly online.  My philosophy is to never take any opponent lightly.

He must have been playing blitz as he moved rapidly throughout the game. The game was challenging and presented some moves and ideas that I had not seen at the club.
