Foreword

What should one play with Black?

Every chessplayer has asked himself this question. Should one follow the

greats and base one's own reertoire on, say, the World Champion? Or

should one adopt some agressive variation to surprise the opponent?

The following considerations speak in favour of the second possibility:

Professionals have a lot of time to study countless variations and

refine them deep into the middlegame. Furthermore, chess masters are

'transparent' inasmuch as their games are regularly published. The result

of this is that they play only established variations which have been

examined in detail; the consumption of time for this is considerable.

For the 'normal' league and tournament player the problem is quite

different. He has not the advantage of ample time available for study,

but also not the disadvantage that his own games are too well known and

can be closely examined by his opponent. So he can play more enter

prisingly and employ the element of surprise. And so we arrive at the

theme of this book.

Every year hundreds of master games are published which open, for

example, with the Benoni. If you play the Benoni it can easily happen

that your opponent has just dicovered a novelty in a magazine and uses

it against you. Suddenly, instead of your (possibly weaker) opponent,

you must struggle against Grandmaster X, which seldom turns out well.

The Budapest Gambit and Fajarowicz Gambit - the subjects of this

book - are little played nowadays internationally; well informed

professionals are hard to surprise there. At other levels, roughly up to

2200, one can be successful in many games with this surprise weapon,

particularly if one is familiar with the most important ideas and

combinations in this book. And if one meets a well-informed opponent

(who knows this variation and perhaps has also read this book) then one
