Also, arguably one of the most famous bong clouds of all time came from Magnus Carlsen to win a blitz tournament last year against Wesley So: https://chess24.com/en/watch/live-tournaments/chess24-banter-blitz-series-2020-final/4/1/1 https://chess24.com/en/watch/live-tournaments/chess24-banter... . Carlsen turned a losing position into a stunning victory with a daring sacrifice.
I often play the bong cloud as a way to give a weaker opponent a handicap. It also works pretty well at psyching out a player who tries to stick to the book moves, but I've been consistently demolished when attempting the opening against anyone 1800+ on chess.com.
