Grob’s Opening, or Grob’s Attack, is characterized by the move 1.g4 where White immediately moves the king knight pawn two squares.]. It is a very unusual and rare opening, but occasionally played by masters and grandmasters. This opening was pioneered by the Swiss International Master Henri Grob (1904-1974). He analyzed it extensively, played it in hundreds of correspondence games, and wrote a book about the opening.
This is the 4th in Bill Wall's Unusual Chess Opening Series! It contains many tactical traps with good attacking chances for both sides. At the master level, the Grob is considered inferior and is rarely employed in serious competition. However, masters and grandmasters have played it in blitz tournaments for its surprise value.The Grob has also been played in several correspondence events. It is the task of this book to bring together decisive and practical games beginning with 1.g4. This book is a collection of over 600 games using the Grob’s Opening as White. Slight annotations have been added to each game where improvements or mistakes could have been made. Chess diagrams have been added at critical positions in some of the more interesting games. This collection is part of my unusual opening series from less analyzed and played openings. I have tried to select the most entertaining games. Enjoy!
