Is the Argen that Ben is talking about, one of the little kids in the lecture? I know I've heard Ben call "Argen" before during another one of these lectures, and I've heard a little kid respond (like 8 I would guess by voice). If it is, it is extremely impressive seeing Argen play like that against Ben.

on 5...Nxd5, the Fried Liver attack 6.Nxf7 is now considered as a mistake. Black can successfully defend against a seemingly frightening White attack. And in these days, even 1800 players can learn by heart the best line for Black (although I don't recommend wasting so much time in theory for 2000- level players) Better play 6.d4!, the Lolli Attack... And better NOT play 5...Nxd5.

BixenteFabregas...If engines were playing they will defend perfectly. But humans tend to make mistakes. But i agree d4 the lolli attack is the most aggressive. I miss the romantic era of chess

I was playing a game with a beginner recently, our first moves were literally--1. e4 d5 2. e4xd5 Qxd5 3. Nc3 Qa5 4. Qh5!! (forking my queen and two pawns on my king-side) Qxh5. To his credit, he resigned at move 11 after I feasted on both his rooks leaving him with a knight and two bishops.

I know this is 7 months late, but it wouldn't work because Black has c6, blocking the check while uncovering the queen's defense of the knight.
