| Jan-09-06 | | Poisonpawns: Easy way to play as black against polish opening:
1.B4 d5 2.Bb2 Qd6! and no matter what white plays black will be able to easily erect the classic center and have an easy game ex 3.b5 Qb4! or 3.a3 e5 I saw this analysed in a corr. game Black has easy game. |
|
| Jan-09-06 | | Ybrevo: <Poisonpawns> Yes that is an interesting answer to Polish Opening (or Sokolsky in my book). I think it was Andersson who came up with the idea. But do you also have some analyzes on what Black do if White plays the line: 1. b4 d5 2. Bb2 Dd6 3. b5 Qb4 4. Be5!? (Tisdall) ... If you have seen this line, I would be glad if you could share it with us. Thanks. |

 | | tpstar: <keypusher> Interesting game. I wouldn't think 1. b4 & 2. d4!? is a successful set-up; instead of KID, consider 2 ... d5 creating a hole at c4, then the Pb4 is a target with 3 ... e6. FYI, here's how I like to play against 1. b4 = Fischman vs Gaile, 1976 White's winning fork 18. Qb2 was unique, then the endgame was lost. Live and learn. =) |
|
| Jan-11-06 | | schnarre: <tpstar> A long time ago, I use to know a player who essayed the pawns to a4, c4, e4, g4 & added b3, d3, f3 & h3: White would then array his major pieces in response to how Black followed through (being from Scotland, he called it the 'Highland Charge'). |
|
Jan-11-06
| | tpstar: <schnarre> I'll bet he gave up the game due to his checkered past. Next time, teach him the Scotch. =) |
|
| Jan-11-06 | | schnarre: <tpstar> He played it for quite a while, before returning home (I could never remember where exactly). He may still. He wouldn't play the Scotch (something "frae a sassanach"), preferring to drink Scotch instead. |
|
| Jan-11-06 | | BrownRecluse: <Scharre> Maaybe he should call it The Culloden opening. Cheers! |
|
| Jan-11-06 | | Poisonpawns: <Ybrevo>Here is ur answer to the line u asked about: 1.B4 d5 2.Bb2 Qd6! 3.b5!? Qb4(direct e5 is also good) 4.Be5 Qxb5 5.Bxc7 Qc5 and no matter what white does black is definite equal if not better.I believe this line with 2...Qd6 is blacks best against the polish opening. |
|
| Jan-12-06 | | Ybrevo: <Poisonpawns> Thanks for your feedback on this line. I also think that 2. - Qd6 is the best answer, but it is a very unbalanced opening with a wide range of opportunities for the crative player. Personally I think I would go for 3. b5 e5!? instead. I mean: White has wasted a pawn-move on the Q-side, so why not build up a solid centre? |
|
| Jan-12-06 | | schnarre: <BrownRecluse> That's a thought! |

| Jan-12-06 | | schnarre: Hmmmnnnn.... |
|
| Jan-13-06 | | Ludamad: Do any of you feel that some of the uncommon openings are bordering being a common one? I feel the hungarian opening or benko or whatever 1. g3 is pretty common. |
|
Jan-14-06
 | | Sneaky: 1.g3 can just lead to the King's Indian Attack (after e4 Nf3 Bg2) so that's pretty common. |
|
Jan-14-06
 | | Eric Schiller: A00 is a ridiculous category, with 139 named openings in the Caxton list. Basically, the designers just dumped in all first moves they didn't approve of. It is absurd that 1.b4 doesn't have its own code, it isn't particularly transpositional like 1.e3 or 1.g3. Taken as a whole, the A series have not a single thing in common! |
|
| Jan-14-06 | | Ludamad: yeah, the polish opening is sound enough but is it common? anyway its a ton better than the grob |

| Jan-14-06 | | Ludamad: yeah that is quite the draw, heh. I don't really think there is anyway to break through without losing material, if they started playing normally after that |
|
| Jan-15-06 | | EnglishOpeningc4: thats the funniest part, its completely even |

|
| Jan-15-06 | | Ludamad: hahaha that'd be risky, if black suddenly played normally |
|
| Jan-15-06 | | EnglishOpeningc4: my favorite openings in this section are
1 e4 g6
2 Bh6 Bg7
3 Bxg7 1-0
and
1 d4 Nf6
2 e5
The first is a correspondence game when black wrote 1...g6 2(any)Bg7
the second is an over the phone game when Fisher thought his opponent moved 1 d4, but he had really said 1 e4
<Eric Schiller thanks for the crazy stalemate.> |
|
| Jan-16-06 | | Poisonpawns: <ybrevo> Here is a GM game featuring the move 2..Qd6 against 1.B4 (sokolsky opening) B Lalic vs Uhlmann, 1980 |
|
| Jan-16-06 | | Ybrevo: <Poisonpawns> Thx for the feedback. Black had a better game all the way. 14. h3 looks a bit ridiculous - something like White tells his opponent: Well, I ran out of ideas. |
