Most professional checkers players do not play weak or losing moves and expect a positive result. The legendary James Wyllie, however, would often confuse his opponents with unusual moves that sometimes were weak and / or losing. But he got results and his status around the world grew as a pioneer and grandmaster in the game.

One of Wyllie's many innovations came in the Second Double Corner opening (11-15, 24-19). He would score a number of wins with a weak and probably losing 29-25 (the Invincible) in the mid game. In the first world championship match in 1847, Wyllie would try this move (29-25) against his opponent Andrew Anderson. However, Anderson was prepared and unleashed an innovation of his own to counter and defeat the Invincible.
