The Tarrasch in Black and White Hello, Do you think that White has a route to an advantage against the Tarrasch (1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 c5)? If so, which line in particular? When I first studied this opening many years ago I tho... Started 11/22/09 at 07:51:53 by TN « Pages 1 2 ... 41 42 43 all »	642	436074	12/12/17 at 05:03:48 By: JEH
New Tarrasch Defense Book by Kotronias Okay - noticed that Russell Enterprises is publishing a new book, "Fight 1.d4 with the Tarrasch! A Complete Black Repertoire vs. 1.d4", by Vassilios Kotronias.

Semi-Tarrasch What is the current status of the Semi-Tarrasch? I keep hearing references to it being "much maligned," etc., but with little suggestion that it is in trouble. It's always struck me as being very so... Started 05/15/06 at 17:58:55 by HgMan « Pages 1 2 3 4 all »	57	36457	02/02/08 at 16:09:21 By: HgMan

Interesting Gambit novelty against the Tarrasch I had a nasty gambit novelty played against me in the Tarrasch defence. It's in the dangerous 6. dxc5! line for white, and the move is 10. b4 !? It appears to be a novelty. Does anyone have a gam... Started 09/07/12 at 08:27:08 by JEH « Pages 1 2 3 all »	32	33773	09/17/12 at 19:23:00 By: JEH

Who do you play the Tarrasch against? Hi, I've always had a bit of a soft spot for this opening, as it's rather unique nature of being a one-size-fits-all approach (working against 1.Nf3 & 1.c4 as well), mixed with dynamic play (unli...

D34: Tarrasch 17...Ba3 still playable?

Keres' line in the semi-Tarrasch In the famous Zurich 1953 tournament, covered in the equally famous book by Bronstein, Keres introduced the line 1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.Nc3 c5 5.cd5: cd4:!?.

Semitarrasch (with 6.g3/6.e3/6.e4) ECO D41 Hello, I 'm interested in that GM Scherbakov could indicate the state of the theory in this old opening. I have not seen games analyzed in your site yet.

Tarrasch main line with 9.Bg5 c4 Hi, I have been trying to learn/play the Black side of the Tarrasch as I think it often leads to active play.
