received an honour of being most discussed in the Entertainment
section category of youtube for 29th October 2007! Many thanks to
Carmelo Risquet for mentioning the Gunderam system in the Rest of
world game against Hkruse


I'm not sure I understand the reference to Gunderam. As far as I'm
aware, the only Gunderam system is in the Panov-Botvinnik Attack line
of the Caro-Kann: 1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.exd5 cxd5 4.c4 Nf6, and now 5.c5
is the defining move of the Gunderam. Is 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Qe7 also named
for Gunderam?
My database shows 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Qe7 being played at least as far
back as Jensen-Krezinsky, Gothenburg 1920. A Brazilian who gained the
IM title in 1972, Helder Camara, rated in the 2300-2400 range, seems
to have specialized in this line in the 1950s, '60s and '70s.
Altogether ChessBase Mega 2005 has 533 games with this line, White
scoring +220 -179 =134, which indicates the line not completely
without merit. Scanning the list, the most important game seemed to be
this from the 2004 FIDE World Championship
