May-01-04    chessplayermatthew: why is the popularety so high on this Sep-02-04    krullichka: Im having some problems playing d27 with white. I played about 100 games against Fritz 8 and I won only once and draw about 10 times. I studied Gligoric and Botvinik (against Petrosjan 1963 games and still didnt find whats the best after 1.d4 d5 2.c4 dc 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.e3 e6 5.Bc4 c5 6.0-0 a6 7.a4 Nc6 8.Qe2 cd4 9.Rfd1 Be7 10.ed4 0-0 11.Nc3 Nfd5 12.Bd3 Ncb4 13.Bb1 b6 (- that line played Portisch but he played 14...Bd7 which I think isnt so good as Fritz 14....Bb7). Now I have several continuings as 14.Ne5,14.a5,etc but afther 14.a5 Fritz play 14...Bb7 and i have nothing my bishop on b1 isnt so strong and after 14.Ra3 i still dont have attack. Sep-02-04    Lawrence: Hi <krullichka>, welcome back. Don't you put Fritz on "infinite analysis" so it can pick out a good strong line for you? Sep-03-04    krullichka: Hi Lawrence! The only thing it does it shoes Sep-03-04    Lawrence: <krullichka>, there's a line that says "Fritz 8" in green, then the space that shows you which move it is considering at the moment, then "Stop" in red, then a "+" and a "-" sign. If you click on the "+" sign you get more candidate moves, and can choose the one you like the most. I always just choose the first one--but give the machine at least 3 minutes to think about it. Is this what you are doing? Mar-31-05    Hesam7: Kramnik with white has really good scores in this line: +11 -4 =21 Apr-01-05    An Englishman: Good Evening: Here's one reason why this line is popular: Alekhine vs Book, 1938 It's hard not to be excited by a game like this. Apr-02-05    abujabishop: In this opening is it always mandatory for white to play 3.Nf3 because in some of the games i played using this opening black replies this move with 3....Bb4 pinning my knight and eventually taking it! Nov-26-05    Eric Schiller: My review of Rizzitano's fine new book on the QGA is up at www.chesscountry.com, in case anyone is interested. Sep-01-11    Robert Hill: If white plays d4 this is the variation i play the most. If the play e4 i always play d5. Dec-21-13    nummerzwei: One of the more purposeful ECO codes. My preference is for 7. a4. Dec-21-13    OhioChessFan: I really don't understand in general chess terms why it scores so poorly for Black. Dec-26-13    perfidious: <OCF>: Not sure why either, actually, for objectively the QGA is by no means bad. One exception to your statement is the subvariation (from the above diagram): 7.Qe2 b5 8.Bb3 Bb7 9.Nc3 Nbd7 10.Rd1 Qb8, as played in Boleslavsky vs Dzindzichashvili, 1967, despite the result of that game. It surprised me to see how well Black has scored in this across the years. From a subjective point of view, a problem with playing for a win as Black in the Classical QGA lies in the fairly commonly seen 7.dxc5, the choice of Kramnik when Kasparov(!) trotted out the QGA in their 2000 match.
