| Apr-02-06 | | Bobak Zahmat: The opening looks much like a King's Indian Defense but a lit bit different move order. This creates a beautifull center for White and Black is unebale to defend it. |

| Apr-02-06 | | Jim Bartle: Sorry, I don't see how it can be a KID without the black bishop on g7. I realize there can be many ways for white to play (without d4, e4, etc.), but I thought the fianchettoed black bishop was one of the KID's "perennials." |

 | | Eric Schiller: It is not a KID, it is a Wade Defense, the key moves being 1...d6 and 2...Bg4. The idea is to exchange the bishop for a White knight at f3, then play ...e6 and set up a solid defense. The Wade Defense is a quite popular defense among strong players. I've played it frequently, and GM Walter Browne used it to beat me in one game. Black can switch to a King's Indian or Old Indian by transposition, but typical is 1.Nf3 d6 2.d4 Bg4 3.e4, conceding the center to White, temporarily. |
