Introduction

l.d4 players are used to being treated with respect. Ater the game Levin -

Guman, German Ch 2001, in which I played the Fajarowcz-Richter Gambt, my

opponent, a solid GM and well nown theoretician, was suiciently affected by

the enormous tension he had to ace rom the very stat that some months later,

in the German League 2002, he prefered to play l.JO against me!

"The study of Chess Openings has taught us that Black, being a single-move

behind, cannot achieve complete equality. He has a choice: to be content with a

pasive but sound position, or try early freeing moves.

l.d4 �f6 Z.: 4 eS!?

This variation was invented in 1917 by Is van Abonyi, Zsigmo nd BarSZ and

Gy ull Breyer. Such an aggressive action seems premature; on the other hand the

black quares in the centre e a bit weak due to c2c4", Richard Rei, Die Meister

des Schachbretts, 1930.

he Fajrowicz-night crates latent hras along the a5-e I diagonal and, in con

junction with the consquent gmbit continuation d7-d6 or d7-d5, may well make

White's development more diicult", M: Euwe, TheoriederSchach-Eroeoun

gen, 1965.

"The Budapest is really a counter-atack rather then a def ence and it appeals to

players who like to challenge White for the initiative rom early in the game. This

paticularly applies to the Fajrowicz Variation, in which (by contrast with the

3 ...�g4, he main line of t he Budapest) Black pus more emphasis on ighting for

key quares than on seeking the arly raptre of the pawn he has given up", Tm

Harding, The Fighting Fajarowicz, 1996.

Ev ery :hess opening hasits ow n hi story, its ow n destiny

Soler- Marcof, Steinitz Chess Club, Novemer 1927, seems to e the vey ist

published game with 3 ...�e4, while the Bitish Chess Magazine, 1919, mentions

the game Mlotkowski - Barett, already played in Philadelphia 1904/1905.

However, investigations and examinations egan only with the game Steiner

Fajarowicz, Wiesbaden 1928, where Black got a completely wnning position, and

this was actally the birth of a new Gambit, Stefa n Buecker/A fred Diel, Kais

siber 112001.

"In the panthon of opening theoreticians, one of the most obscure surely has

to be S.Fajaowicz. The creator of 3 ...�e4 in the Budapest Gambit, he is almost

unknown outside his variation. The major recent works have little to say about

him other than that he was rom Leipzig and that he was active during the period

1920-1938", John Donaldson, Iside Chess, 1990.

Thanks o Diel we now now a bit more: "on June 5, 1908, Sa mmi Fajarowicz

was bn in Mockem near Leipzig. He ws one of those comet-like players of

chess history, whose active period (1927-1933) was too shot owing to perse

cution of the Jews and fatal illness", Kassiber 112001.
