So I was just playing a game of #chess and then this happened! 60

Last Saturday, at the Lathrop Chess Club, I played a nice opening trap which brought my opponent to the point of resignation after just seven moves. I am sharing this chess trap, not so much as to encourage my readers to play the Grob Opening (1. g4 e5) but rather so that they can avoid this pitfall. However, if you would like to learn more about Grob’s Attack, be sure to checkout: So I was just playing a game of #chess and then this happened! 50

After just 7 moves, Black can not avoid a major material loss and resigns.
