Bongcloud Opening Book

Bumping this authoritative source!

Thought I'd share the Lennys famous "Aim for the Sky!" game, with annotations from yours truly. Such a beautiful game deserves more love.. (and of course silly chess.com believes checkmate here meant a win for Fischer! such disrespect to the incredible play from BM Lenny Bongcloud as this Mate-Draw meant Fischer needed to win his next game!)

this is the one time I condone necroposting, this is amazing

Hi! 

Can someone explain how the Night can magically jump to F4 square on move 3 in Heerero Bind?

L15-1.e4 e5 2.Ke2 Ne7 3.Nf4 Nc6 4.c4-Alapin Variation: Heerero bind
Thank you in advance for your help! 

May you have a wonderful chess life!

A way to make that legal (but daft) would be to have 2. Ne2. Giving your knight up for nothing on move 3 is unwise.

I think you mean "this is the worst defense I have ever seen", if referring to 1. e4 e5 2. f4 Ke7.

wrong, this post is the best post ever, and I will stand by that.

ur just mad that you haven't been enlightened yet by bongcloud theory

WHATAVAYDD

Hikaru and Magnus:
Double Bongcloud: Peace Treaty Variation

I didn't see this in the opening book so I'm gonna see if I can get a game using this opening on an alt

1. e3 e5 2. e4 Ke2

Reverse Bongcloud

Missing all the anti-Bonglcoud lines, some of which can be tricky enough below elite level.

For example 1. e4 e5 2. Ke2 g5 is known to heavily inhibit king expansion on the kingside.

Nice

What about: 1. e4 e5 2. Ke2 Ke7 - Double Bongcloud
