I think we'll keep going with things that sound like what a 1780s aristocrat might say, anyone who knows chess will catch on to the bit when they notice.were just naming chess pieces and letters and numbers at random. Here's some others we've made up:

The Brussels Wager

The Haliburton Exit (mine, I thought it was clever)

The Barcelona Maneuver

The Antwerp Flank

The Dreaded Parallel Strategem of the Swiss

The Buckaneer Open

The Proto Indo European Midgame Meta
