    Grob micro-game


    I play the Grob Attack from time to time, usually against lower rated players because very often they see their center and the b-Pawn under attack from the B on g2, P on c4 and Q on b3 and get confused with results similar to those seen here.  The Grob is a tactical booger that is a lot of fun to play but…I remember playing it years ago against an unknown opponent who I later found out was a Canadian Province Champion.  I found that out after he wiped me off the board when I played 1.g4, so ever since then I don’t play it against Experts and Masters.
