Oops! My mistake this time. I was trying to play the game both from my office and home. I dropped a move when I switched and didn't catch it. From now on I'll stick to playing from home. Bart to Homer's Lisa 3 P-KB3

C5xD4 PxP. It actually took me a while to decide on this, perhaps one of the weakest of variations. However it has been years since I played competitive chess and this defense, called the Sicilian, is very complex. I used it for at least two reasons. First, it often throws the opponent off-guard because of it's complexity; and secondly because there was a time (long ago in my "yout") when I was good at it. But those days are long gone, as I am sure I would never have replied with this variation when I had a grip on the "ins and outs" of the Sicilian Defense.
