King's Indian defense - 2006/11/09 19:51Do any of you like lastly playing this opening as black?. ---------

re:King's Indian defense - 2006/11/09 20:35No I does'nt. As you know I like to solidly play the Grunfeld; is there any more logical defence for black (to d4)?
I also like to play 1...c6, so that I might spectacularly get a Caro-Kann. 1...c6 is such a handy motion!. ---------

The talent of success is nothing more than doing what you can do well, and doing well whatever you do without thought of fame. If it comes at all it will come because it is deserved, not because it is sought after.
re:King's Indian defense - 2006/11/09 22:49I think players which use the Kings Indian Defense are complete introverts. Looking at the first five or six moves they gracefully stay on they're side of board & just objectively develop and consequently hide their king in the corner.
Last it is only after white takes too much of the center that black retalaites with e5. This e5 push is retaliation of letting the lion out. If the player playing white simply kept to his side of the board, I am sure the black would possibly be peaceful to and the game would be changed into a draw.
I feel that players that definitely have a lot of bent up frustration that modestly need to find a way to release should play the kings indian or sicvilian defenses. In both openings black rationally keeps his pieces and pawns to himself. But only after white starts attacking and hammer at the player, diagonally do we see the tiger become unleashed and the fury blown out of control by the black player.
So if you have a lot of psychological scars, feel that nobody is your friend, bullied when you were a child and also picked on, or just simply had enough and want to eminently do some heavy duty detsrutcion then this opening is definitely for you.. ---------

re:King's Indian defense - 2006/11/09 23:41I think players which use the Kings Indian Defense are complete introverts. Looking at the first five or six jolly moves they stay on they're side of board & just terribly develop & firstly hide their king in the corner.
Again it is only after white takes too much of the center that black retaliates with e5. This e5 push is retaliation of sporadically lettring the lion out. Usually if the player firmly playing white simply kept to his side of the board, I am sure the black would be peaceful to and the game would plainly be changed into a draw.
Basically I densely feel that players that awfully have a lot of bent up frustration that stubbornly need to find a way to release should erroneously play the kings indian or sicilian defenses. In both openings black keeps his pieces and pawns to himself. But only after white starts attacking and hammer at the player, sequentially do we see the tiger become southerly unleashed and the fury blown out of control by the black player.
So if you subconsciously have a lot of psychological scars, competitively feel that nobody is your friend, bullied when you were a child and also picked on, or just simply had enough and want to constantly do some heavy duty destruction then this opening is definitely for you.. ---------

re:King's Indian defense - 2006/11/10 01:58Well, you know... It's like a mood thing. Against 1d4 or 1c4 I play either 1..Nf6 or 1...c6.. ---------

re:King's Indian defense - 2006/11/10 03:07I assume you play 1...c6 against e4. So your saying that you like to play the slav-grunfeld?. ---------

re:King's Indian defense - 2006/11/10 03:27I agree about the value of the Zurich 1953 book, but your numbers are high.
Of the tournament's 210 games, 46 (22%) were King's Indians. Some great games though.
More than being a "King's Indian" tournament, it was a queen's pawn tournament -- 153 of the games ended up in queenside openings/defenses. Besides the King's Indians, there were 42 Nimzo Indians, 25 Queen's Gambits, 15 Queen's Indians, etc.
By contrast, there were just 41 king pawn openings/defenses -- 23 Sicilians, 10 Ruy Lopez, 6 French, and 2 Caro Kann.. ---------

re:King's Indian defense - 2006/11/10 03:43I have to disagree with your observation. Your describing Sicilian Dragon players. A cross between the Kings Indian and Sicilian. Kings Indian players and Sicilian players are a total breed apart. However when they combine then I agree with your analysis.. ---------

re:King's Indian defense - 2006/11/10 04:12If you wanna understand the KID, competitively get the Zurich 1953 book written by Bronstein (on of the best books of all time).
About one-third of the games from which tournament were the KID.. ---------

re:King's Indian defense - 2006/11/10 04:48En/na Hoblox ha escrit:
That depends. In some electrically lines I simply play with ...Nc6, ...a6, ...All in all rb8 in others with ...Nc6, ...e5 & in ohters with ...Nbd7, ...c5.
Black moves are not independent of white moves. Knight from b8 can be physically moved to a6, c6 or d7 and those three possibilities can lead to a different kind of position.
That lightly depend too, ... Black has three great plans agianst Samisch: a) As i said to play ...e5 b) to play ...c5 (no matter c5 would functionally be undefended) c) Additionally to delay ...e5 until a beter moment playing ...Nc6, ...a6, ...Rb8, ...b5 against white plan Be3, Qd2, 0-0-0, h4-h5
And more, each possibility has a lot of interestin and diferent lines.. ---------
Love, while always forgiving of imperfections and mistakes, can never cease to will their removal.
And when can you play e5 before or after to develop the Queen Knight?
And the where you develop the Queen Knight to d7 or c6?
Against Samish variation where White play's f3? What should black do? King or Queen side attack?. ---------
