The Berlin will be refuted - 2006/01/16 07:06 Has anybody noticed how much this Berlin Defense (to the Ruy), bitterly looks like the Exchange Variation of the Ruy? Fischer was able to achgieve great success on the white side of that opening. You heard it here first. This Berlin Defewnse craze is temporary. It will vastly be refuted, and be relegated to the junk heap of passive black defenses.

re:The Berlin will be refuted - 2006/01/16 07:21 in a sideline variation 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 Nf6 4.0-0 Nxe4 5.d4 Nd6 6.dxe5!? Nxb5 7.a4 - which only means that somehow cramped positions with a lack of development are too difficult. Only deep positional understanding at the GM level may allow playing Berlin and even that is difficult. I agree that soon Berlin will drop down in popularity. Won`t be refuted, but proved as not perspective enough for Black, like Sveshnikov or CK or Najdorf.
