I'll See Your King's Gambit and Raise You a Falkbeer Counter-Gambit

Bob L. recently scored the biggest upset so far in an unrated thematic King's Gambit tournament by besting Aleph (rated 2086 when the tourney began). Games start with the basic King's Gambit position, but the Black player then decides whether to accept or decline the gambit. The tournament is unrated in order to encourage players to sign up and try unfamiliar lines. See the game with Fritz analysis after the fold.
