Alekhine Defense : Krejcik Gambit w Bxf7


Alright, I ran the engine tournament and was suprised that Deep Shredder 10 won. Rybka has been the reigning champion. I was very pleased with this engine tournament. The path to victory for Black is clear now. Although the king has moved and unable to castle, Black still has an advantage in the opening. This is probably due to the advanced pawns and the fact that you gain tempos by attacking the queen. In the games, if the queens can be traded off early then Black gains the big center and more active pieces. I'm ready for this attack now and will gladly accept the gambit. Here are the results:
