MORNINGTON CRESCENT anyone?

[Artois]

As it's FRIDAY?



I'll start with the classic HOLLAND PARK opener.

 

[Simster]

ACES. I'll play the reverse struddle manouvre across to Northfields.

I think you may be in trouble already.

 

[Artois]

Well there goes my stack capacity early doors.

WARREN STREET


Phew, that took some nifty mental work...

[Publius Ovidius]

Green park

Going totally against form

 

[Normal Rob]

We're playing the standard Lord Appleby rules.

[Trigger]

Edit: just seen Artois's post. Please ignore.

I thought that was only allowed to be invoked on even numbered days of the month?

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Baker Street

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

Interesting, Milord.

Turnham Green

 

[Trigger]

Interesting, Milord.

Turnham Green

Hmmm, very tricky indeed...

I'm thinking RUISLIP MANOR

 

[Superphil]

Hounslow Central

 

[Simster]

Where is Brovian? He's BRILLIANT at this game.

Anyway, a fairly routine move to Liverpool Street for me.

 

[Trigger]

Ha ha, nice...

OXFORD CIRCUS

WEMBLEY PARK sorry I still have no idea how the game works, anyone have a link to some explanation?

Yeah, yeah. I've seen your type of hustle before.

"ooh look at me I can't play. Let's have a bet"

Well Artois

Opening the triangle will block any of the three possible reverse draws and is usually played early in the game (before the Central Line has been quartered).

Then the risk of a diagonal move is negligible, as is the possibility of quartering.

Therefore, I raise my Wembley Park to...................
