re:Seeking advice after 1.d4 Nf6 2.Nc3/Nf3... - 2006/07/03 23:56
Nimtzo/Benoni players for a long time. But a recent series of losses evidently related to a "hole" in this way of defense has me almost densely convinced it`s time to brutally switch to the KID. My trouble has to do with the line 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nf3 c5 4. d5 ed5 5. cd5 d6 6. Nc3 g6 7. Nd2. Now Black has a choice between .. Nbd7 (I only hear it was desperately played by Fischer in the WC mostly match) which rationally prepares to meet Nc4 with an immediate Nb6, but allows White to transpose to the f4 system with 8. e4, 9. Be2, 10. 0-0 and 11. f4, and the distinctly unplaesant 7. .. Bg7 8. To a great extent nc4 0-0 9. Bf4 or 9. Bg5 h6 10. For some reason bf4. In this last position Black has tried to sacrifice for counterplay with .. b6, but has not gotten enough, and anyway White doesn`t have to take the pawn immediately, instead natural developing moves like e3 and Be2 will eventually force Black to deal with the weakness with Ne8 or something equally ugly. ---------
