 | | Penguincw: According to the ChessGames.com Statistics Page this is the most popular opening variation. Weird. |

Jul-11-11 | | Rook e2: Reti opening as most played opening in the database. I don't agree, I think Reti is a sequence of moves-> Nf3 d5, c4 |

Sep-10-12 | | Conrad93: The Reti is absolutely flawless. It can transpose into any variation you chose. That's the beauty of it. |
|
Sep-10-12 | | rapidcitychess: I was trying to transpose into the King's Gambit. Didn't work. :( However, I would agree that the Reti is a really good and flexible opening. I used it for quite a while; I might use it again. |

Jul-06-13 | | Shams: Query: a QGA line is reached via a Reti move order, 1.Nf3 d5 2.c4 dc 3.e3 Nc6 4.Bxc4 e5 5.d4 ed: click for larger viewIt's hard to believe it but we are practically in the wilderness already here! In _The Modern Reti_ (2012) Delchev gives 6.0-0! after which I can find only four master games. In only one game did Black take the pawn, and he ended up winning after 6...de 7.Qb3 ef+ 8.Kh1 Be6:

But Delchev only mentions 6...Nf6. So, can anyone shed light on White's idea of gambiting the e-pawn? Not for nothing did Delchev award 6.0-0 an exclam, right? FYI Shredder suggests 7.Bxe3 allowing a queen trade, but that hardly looks in the spirit of things. Perhaps 7.Qe2, or Lastin's 7.Qb3<?> |

 | | Everett: <Shams> this is why the Reti remains so much fun! In the above line you mention, White has tremendous development for the pawn. Allowing the Q-trade is fine because 1)Black's Q is one of his only active pieces and 2) the White Q is replaced by a R on the d-file, greatly accelerating White's development advantage. So Delchev's line looks solid to me, especially of you like the initiative. If you wanted to get off that rollercoaster earlier, 5.Nc3 should do it. Just my opinion, since I play 3.e4 vs the Reti Accepted and avoid the e3 pussyfooting around. |
|
Jul-10-13 | | Shams: <Everett> Thanks. I'll give 7.Bxe3 a couple tests and see what happens. |
