Game is fluid can't case moves. I'm already ready to secede after our second move.

I vote for the Berlin defense as well. It does give us good chances to draw, at the very least.

Most likely he will play the Ruy Lopez. We need to decide which line we want in that - if we screw up the moves, he'll retain a huge advantage.
As predicted by actmyname, we're dealing with the Ruy Lopez or Spanish Game.Several options are available, including:
3...a6 (Morphy Defence)
3...Nf6 (Berlin Defence)
3...Bc5 (Classical or Cordel Defence)
3...Nge7 (Cozio Defence)
3...g6 (Smyslov Defence)
3...Nd4 (Bird's Defence)
3...d6 (Steinitz Defence)
3...f5!? (Schliemann Defence or Jaenisch Gambit)
I vote for a6. What do you think?
a6: 1 vote (hermesesus)
A professional chess player? Rated in the top 100 FIDE? Damn.
I'm a fan of chess too. Currently i'm making exercises in the "Chess: 5334 Problems, Combinations and Games by László Polgár".
I'm on the 2k exercise already..
Very nice book actually!
Well, if you could reveal your identity would be nice!

Welcome to the game. Please help vote for future moves. That is a very famous book.
Eventually I will reveal my identity. If you read this thread carefully you can find clues that eliminate most of the names on that list.
