Crazy Play: Louis Abronson (the No Bulgaria opening)

ā€œItā€™s not very polite for the entire board to leave to talk together and they tell you to stay here.ā€
ā€œWhen you stab someone your pieces are suppose to move.ā€
ā€œThe opening is a disease and I couldnā€™t cure it.ā€
ā€œWe do not need to negotiate, I have figured it all out.ā€
