Chess board
Round 1 Siddarrth Chanrasekaran Board 4 Black v Herts

Prelude to the Fried Liver Attack. Unless black really knows his stuff he should play here

5. ... Na5

However Siddarrth invites the Fried Liver with

5. ... Nxd5

White has two interesting possibilities here, he can launch straight into the Fried Liver with 6. Nxf7 as
in the game, or in can play the less risky but still very good Lolli with 6.d4

6. Nxf7 Kxf7 The Only move
7. Qf3+

Chess board

Here Siddarrth played 7. ... Ke8?? Instead it is vital that black tries, however exposed his king is, to try to hang onto
his extra material and so correct was 7. ... Ke6. Play now gets messy and we will cover this opening in detail on the website soon.
