ChessBase show: Sokolov, Speelman, and the Icelandic Gambit

When former multiple world championship candidates collide what can you expect?
The fun Icelandic Gambit, that’s what. It goes 1.e4 d5 2.exd5 Nf6 3.c4 e6 and
is not entirely sound. But as Dennis Monokroussos explains in his Playchess
presentation, if it worked against a player who was once #3 in the world, it
could also work in your local club. 9 p.m. ET Wednesday night.
