Sep-11-09 Nimzo-Indian, Samisch Variation (E27) 
| |
|
fref: It seems that it's not worth playing this variation as White since statistically (using Chessgames Database), Black is doing better.

| |
|
fref: <<sultanmir>: Amazing pun !! I am surprised this did not get into the top 10 (which frankly in my opinion had lot of lame puns)...> Maybe it's because lots of people checked "didn't catch the pun".

| |
|
fref: A line of the Baltic Defense that I like to see on the board is 1.d4 d5 2.c4 Bf5 3.cxd5 Bxb1 4.Qa4+ c6 5.Rxb1 Qxd5 6.Nf3 Nd7. [DIAGRAM] I don't know if it's good for White or for Black.
