C44 Ponziani Opening and Scotch Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.c3 Nf6)

C44 Ponziani Opening and Scotch Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.c3 Nf6)

Another oldie as I go through my Red Hot Pawn game database but with each game I am getting a little bit closer to recent games. There are some years even completely missing when I did not play there at all. Getting to more recent examples should not therefore take all that long. So far I have been lucky with the different openings as there have not been all that many games between ones that feature an opening I have not yet covered in this blog but I might be getting really close to it. As I type this, I have not a certain opening to cover tomorrow which might mean that I will have to fall to my backup plan which has definitely something that I have not covered in this blog before. I have been saving it to moments where I can't find a suitable game to do this normal stuff. So we will see what happens with tomorrow's post. I have added 10 more puzzles today divided in to mate in one, two, three and four pages.
