I beat a strong Grandmaster in 23 moves

I was so happy when he resigned, the final position is not good for Black but he could have played on... Anyway, enjoy the game, leave any comments, thoughts, questions below or in my inbox. Cheers! :D

nice congratulations

nice game!

wow

by capturing the pawn on the throw 4 he already showed that he was underestimating you.

@Minecraftado no, capturing on move 4 is the best move here, other moves are too passive

@soni777new this position is theorical in Ruy Lopez, capture pawn is bad idea. But i no have time now for explain for u. Xd.

@Minecraftado not true, this line with 3...Nf6 and 4...Nxe4 was popularised by the former world champion Vladimir Kramnik, the point being that the knight can return to d6 to attack the bishop on b5

Here is the world champion Magnus Carlsen playing it:

It's not even close to the main line
