The Fried Liver Attack, Slav Style
It's a rare chess player who doesn't know the Fried Liver Attack in the Two Knights (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nf6 4.Ng5 d5 5.exd5 Nxd5 6.Nxf7!?), but how does one Fried Liver the opponent in a Slav? Robert Kempinski has apparently found the answer - have a look.

Daniel:
I had a similar game OTB on 6/14/2008 out of the Slav

as black:

1. d4 d5 2. c4 c6 3. Nc3 Nf6 4. Nf3 dxc4 5. a4 Bf5 6 Bg5 Nd5 7. e3 h6 8. Bh4 Nxc3 9. bxc3 b5 10. axb5 cxb5 11. Ne5 Nd7 12. Nxf7! Kxf7 13. Qf3 Kg6! 14. e4 Be6 but now my opponent blunders and defense became easy with 15. Ra6?? Nb6 16. d5 Bc8 17. Be2 Kh7 Qf7?? Bxa6 and the game is not so interesting anymore. Still the knight sacrifice gained my 1700 rated opponent quite the audience of 40 people including prestigous GM Anatoly Lein and GM Shabalov
