And like all openings, the many tactical and strategical considerations are best demonstrated by miniatures.You'll find exploitations of underdevelopment, neglected centers, opened lines, active piece play, well supported pawns and of course, the Bxh7+ lines (known as the Greco sacrifice).With over 1300 (a baker's dozen) games, we know you'll find something to enjoy.
