It's a trap!

Alas, there is no Admiral Ackbar in our heads during the game. An opponent in one of my current games fell into the Tarrasch Trap. This is why I always make it a point to look up the famous traps in an opening before trying it out even casually. Sometimes they are rather subtle. It stinks to fall into one and sometimes you get a free point. Even if it never comes up, the tactical idea is often valuable.

This isn't such a bad trap, though, so the game isn't over yet.
