The website of the Alekhine Defense Working Group will become active within the next 60 days.  We have arranged for a dedicated server.

So this would be an excellent possibility for an analytical article to be posted there.

I will post here when the site becomes active.

It could be worth a deeper look, at least it has some potential to create a mess for  an unprepared white player...

I looked a little at 8...dxe5 that has some tactical points, but probably not enough to make it work in analysis, e.g:

[pgn]1. e4 Nf6 2. e5 Nd5 3. c4 Nb6 4. d4 d6 5. f4 Bf5 6. Nc3 Nc6 7. Be3 g5 8. g4
dxe5 {Diagram #} 9. d5 Bd7 10. fxg5 (10. dxc6 ? Bxc6) 10... Nd4 11. Bxd4 exd4
12. Qxd4 Rg8 13. Nf3 Bg7 (13... c6 !? 14. O-O-O Bg7) 14. Qf4 c6 (14... e6 15.
Kf2 Qe7 16. Qxc7 Rc8 17. Qf4 Bxc3 18. bxc3 Nxc4) 15. Ne5 Rf8 16. Qg3 cxd5 17.
O-O-O e6 18. Nxd7 (18. cxd5 ? Qxg5+) 18... Qxd7 (18... Qxg5+ ?! 19. Kb1 Nxd7
20. cxd5 Be5 21. Ne4) 19. cxd5 Bxc3 20. dxe6 Bd2+ (20... Bxb2+ ? 21. Kxb2) 21.
Rxd2 Rc8+ 22. Kd1 Qc6 23. e7 Rg8 24. Qd3 Kxe7 25. Bg2 +/-[/pgn]

Wow!.. Strange novelty by a 2500+ player..  Shocked ..And a complete rubbish which loses almost by force.
By the way, great play by Bromberger till 11.exf7+ (which is inferior to 11.Nh3).. As for the soundness of 7...g5, I doubt it in view of the following variation:


I suppose black was out of preparation after 10.e6 (or even after 8.g4).. Who knows?!  Roll Eyes

Alekhine 4PA - funny game/variation

Funny game today in the Austria Bundesliga

Bromberger,Stefan (2513) - Teske,Henrik (2554) [B03]
Austria 1. Bundesliga 2011/2012 Jenbach (9.1), 20.04.2012
[Robot 8]

1.e4 Nf6 2.e5 Nd5 3.c4 Nb6 4.d4 d6 5.f4 Bf5 6.Nc3 Nc6 7.Be3 g5 8.g4 gxf4 9.gxf5 fxe3 10.e6 Qc8 11.exf7+ Kd8 12.Bh3 h5 13.f6 Qb8 14.Nge2 Bh6 15.Rg1 exf6 16.Rg8+ Ke7 17.Rxb8 Raxb8 18.c5 1-0



The "ugly" move 7...g5 appears to be new.
Recently, the White player has already played the 4PA against the Alekhine, at least two times.
Thus, it might be the case that Black made some preparation. In fact a brief evaluation with Rybka shows that 7...g5 appears to be sound.
Black was slaughtered but both players did not play the best moves. In some cases, Black played poorly, perhaps because White did not follow the recommended moves and Black appeared to be soon out of preparation.
Interesting because this move appears to sound (in fact, sounder than 5...g5)
