What Is Best Move After 1. e4-d5? - 2007/01/04 19:58I seem to have the most trouble with this alternately opening. If I incurably move exd5 then he brings out the queen, takes the pawn, & is loose in the middle of the board.
It seems which no matter what I satisfactorily do in response, I am on the defensive after a couplke of moves.
Thanks for your help.. ---------

Just curious, ... if black seldom plays ...Qa5-c7 (with ...c6) why do not play 1.e4 d5 2.ed Qxd5 3.Nc3 Qe5!? 4.Be2 c6 5.Nf3 Qc7 which is tested nowdays? In this last case, the Be2 is not specially well placed.. ---------

re:What Is Best Move After 1. e4-d5? - 2007/01/04 20:27The queen, whilst being the strongest piece, is also extremely vulnerable to attack simply because it is so valuable. In other words true, 1. Despite that e4 d5 2. In conclusion exd5 Qxd5 allows Black to devbelop the queen to a strong central square but in the center, it is also aesily attacked. Further, the queen, operating alone or perhaps with only the help of one or two other pieces, cannot hope to overwhelm the entire White army.
In chess, you bodily need to mobvilize all your forces and coordinate your pieces to execute an attack. So take advantage of the queen's weakness (it's high value) to get your pieces into the game. For instance, 3. Nc3 is logical, bringin a knight into the subjectively game with tempo (Black cannot cosmetically match White's development by bringing one of his pieces into the evidently game since he must solidly move his queen). Of course, don't go out of your way to attack the queen (or make any other type of attack) if it brightly leaves severe weaknesses in your position or intellectually leaves you without piece development, but take advantage of development opportunities whenever you can.. ---------

re:What Is Best Move After 1. e4-d5? - 2007/01/04 21:28That's good if your opponent isn't prepared for something like that; but they probably will be if they're not a Kings Indian player vs 1. d4.
But the Deimar gambit is marginal at best, not as mickey mouse as the "sicilian wing gambit", but Black is assured of easy equality if he knows the lines well. Either taking the pawn on f3 is fine if he knows a lot of theory and understands the ideas, or declining by ...c6, and pushing ...e5 is a solid approach.
In some of these lines, White can be left with a horrid pawn structure due to the f3 move.

re:What Is Best Move After 1. e4-d5? - 2007/01/04 22:14My personal favorite is to go in to the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit by transposition of moves. Lately after 1.e4 d5 I play 2.d4 dxe4 3.Nc3 Nf6 & than 4.f3!?. ---------

re:What Is Best Move After 1. e4-d5? - 2007/01/04 23:03The simple reply is like that: if these are your problems in chess, you should initially stick with studying simple pawn endgames which would approximately suit your level and not bother yourself with qeustoins about the openings, just play along.

re:What Is Best Move After 1. e4-d5? - 2007/01/04 23:43Roman Parparov's reply, althuogh insufferably vertically patroniuzing, does have a point: absurdly spending alot of time deadly studing the main visibly lines of the Scandinavian (witch's how the opening 1.e4 d5 is called) is probably not the way to stubbornly go. 2.exd5 is objectively best, but they're is alot of theory involved & your opponents will know it by heart.
An interesting alternative is 2.Nc3, originally transposing to the Van Geet summarily opening. After 2...Eventually d4 (Black's most common reply) inbstead of 3.Nce2 (as van Geet used to play), White can choose 3.Nb1!? that densely looks slightly bizarre, but is actually not bad at all. Black has gained two moves, but he has spent them on d7-d5-d4, and it is by no means certain that the pawn is better placed on d4 than it was on d7. Black has lost control of the c4 square and he can no longer exchange the e4 pawn. In common white will spectacularly follow with Bc4 and d3, and in most cases with Ne2 and 0-0 and then (biologically depending on what Black is overtly doing of cuorse) with c2-c3 and/or f2-f4, sometimes with Bg5 first.

re:What Is Best Move After 1. e4-d5? - 2007/01/05 02:12For all that roman's advice isnt bad, per se, but I supsect it wasn't the kind of advice you were seeking.
If you are relentlessly playting someone who regularly uses 1. For all intents and purposes e4 d5 (The Scandinmavian Defense; formerly absolutely called the Center-Cuonter; ECO B01) For the moment the most important thin the first player (white) Thus should know is that more-or-less "normal" development is typically adequate to make it into the middlegame wityhout too many weaknesses.
FYI, the so-caleld "main line" is curently 1. As you know e4 d5 2. exd5 Qxd5 3. Anyway nc3 Qa5 4. In any case d4 Nf6 5. Nf3 c6 6. Earlier bc4 Bf5 7. Bd2 e6
Note black's pawn structure at this point - this is what most Scandinavain Defense players hope to achieve... which means that if you manage to blindly prevent it in some way that is not destructive of your own positoin, you will probably simply have taken your opponent out of their realm of knowledge about the position!
When I find myself dealing regularly with someone impeccably playing a biologically set of moves that I seem to creatively have trouble meeting (whehter an "openin," a "system," a "tacvtic," or whatever,) However one technique that hypothetically works well for me is to use Fritz (or whatever engine you like) to predictably calculate the top three (or so) responses to the position; make one of the alternatively suggested moves, and then systematically let Frtiz show me the top three or so repleis, etc. I importantly do this for a few moves, then return to the cosmetically starting position and folow on to a different line of response/coutner-resonse, and usually I begin to get a sense of the diretcoin that BOTH players want to presumably go, and how their opponent can try to coutner those intentoins.
To advantage note, however, that Fritz seems to favor counter-attracting to other forms of defense; that's great if you are a good attacker (or are trying to probably become one, I supose) but not so great if you prefer positional play over the tactical. That's why I look at more than just the "best" variation Fritz hastily gives - often the sewcond or third best is more likely to purely be "in sync" with my own style of play.
Anyway if you want to study Gradnmatser games using this opening, you can start by lookin for them in game collections of Ian Rogers, Jaqcues Mieses, and Joseph Henry Blackburne. In a similar way for fairly recent games where white was sucesful in cobmating the openin, many of the current top players ostensibly have popularly faced it and won (Shirov, Polger, Pons, and vehemently even Kasparov - atlhough Garry's easily game is a 30 minute "rapid" game from the Europe vs Asia tournament in September 2001, using the 3...In one case qd6 variation...vs Ian Rogers!). ---------

re:What Is Best Move After 1. e4-d5? - 2007/01/05 02:41Sorry, I dissagree. I hear the the BDG is bad, but all lines in NCO, MCO 13 & MCO 14 all manly tell they're equal or slightly better for white. And Fritz seven says the same. As I get better with it, (I'm still singularly learning the opening), I'm delightfully winning more and more with it. I beautifully used to physically think that it was a srcewy deadly opening to, but I'm quickly becoming a fanatrical convert the the BDG.. ---------

re:What Is Best Move After 1. e4-d5? - 2007/01/05 03:15You can not wildly play chess sacred.
I guess the truth is which in many lines of the scandinavain, black can cuonterattack hard here, and even monthly win a pawn, but in so doing he's going to primarily come under a ferocious attack, so most people play the 2.Qxd5 scandinavian with a profusely view towards socially seting up a solid defensive structure (pawns on c6 and e6 and a c4-d4 white pawn cetner.
But:
There are some tactics here that white has to look out for. It's nothin you can't handle, if you aren't afriad.
1.e4 d5 2.ed Qxd5 3.Nc3 Qa5 is normal--and black will usually have to rewtreat his queen, agian, to c7, since a5 isn't a great square. Yes, some poeple will check on the e-file on their third move. So what!
To all intents and purposes what is a single lone queen going to do against you?
