Poll:
Ruy Lopez as Black
The Ruy Lopez is the most common continuation after 1...e5, so I am wondering how people play against it?
I play the line 3...g6 most of the time, and sometimes venture into the Open Defence. Started 08/09/04 at 18:52:27 by Bond |

Opening suggestions for 1 e4 e5 update
As Victor has mainly focused on the Ruy Lopez and Italian game, it would be nice to have more games from other openings, e.g. the Scotch!

From what I understand, like the Sicilian, the Ruy Lopez has "something to suit everyone's taste". As someone who doesn't play e-pawn openings, but would like to find a similar ty... Started 01/29/09 at 20:49:33 by Dragan Glas |

Good book that explains the ideas in the Spanish

I am a 2100 FIDE player and I have decided to switch from the Pirc to playing 1...e5. I have the book Play 1 e4 e5 by Nigel Daives, which I find to be quite good. However, I would like... Started 10/05/06 at 18:52:20 by Antillian |

Now that the Breyer seems to be extremely difficult to crack, why haven't elite players been switching over to 9. d4? When Giri played this against Carlsen, he got a pretty decent position and I also ...

Bird's Defense
From looking at the contents of "Secrets of Opening Surprises 12", I see that Glenn Flear looks at the line 1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Bb5 Nd4 4 Nxd4 exd4 5 0-0/Bc4 h5. Does he conclude that Black can equali...

How to counter the thematic kingside attack?
