Old thread, I know, but if after 3 Nf3 d6 4 Be2, Black plays 4...a6, White gets a good KID with 5 c4! (of course 5 Nc3 is also possible for pure e4 players).

IIRC, Tiger recommends transposing to a Pirc (6...e6!?)

True about 4...a6 5.c4!, but 4...Nd7!? is a more cunning move order for ...a6 Modern players (also against another similar attempt to force Black into a Pirc, 3.Nf3 d6 4.h3). I have no idea why neither Tiger nor anyone else I'm aware of analyzes 4...Nd7; I face it a lot in blitz when I try 3.Nf3/4.h3 as White.

I wonder what the Tiger recipe is against a Damenspringerzurückhaltungspolitik (1. e4 g6 2. d4 Bg7 3. Nf3 d6 4. Be2).

Pirc DVD by Bojkov - which line against modern def

Hi guys!
I just watched GM Bojkov's DVD about classical line in pirc defence. I think it's an interesting line but I have problems to find something similiar against modern defence with quick a6 (Tiger modern). Maybe some suggestions?
