It is going to be a queen-odds game most every time, otherwise you have to make
_sure_ you never leave your queen open to a two-mover.  IE I play Ne6 and don't
let you play dxe6 in this case and instantly play Nxd8 and the game is basically
over.  There are lots of such "plans" to deal with.  I think a double move once
in a game is enough to offset at _least_ a 500 point rating difference.
