Nimzo-Indian Defense - 2006/07/05 06:21I thought I would light off a discussion with this line. Play through it and see what you think of Black`s chances: 1 d4 Nf6 2 c4 e6 3 Nc3 Bb4 4 Qc2 0-0 5 a3 Bxc3 6 Qxc3 Ne4 6...Ne4 seems like the most logical move, though it also seems that it is rare. MCO doesn`t mention it, though I have no specific references in the Nimzo. White can get in trouble quick after f3, due to Qh4+. ---------

re:Nimzo-Indian Defense - 2006/07/05 06:47This has been technically played on several occasions I believe by GM Nick DeFirmian...see Vigorito-DeFirmian World Open 1997 (1-0) for an example. ---------
Moral excellence comes about as a result of habit. We become just by doing just acts, temperate by doing temperate acts, brave by doing brave acts.
