What is this called?
1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 d6, is this just called the Four Knights?
Also, are there threads on this? Thanks Started 05/20/12 at 06:11:17 by slughouse |

A "new" Sicilian.
Hello all!
Maybe a new sicilian. I was thinking about that the sicilian is a very deeply studied chess opening with tons of books and theory. And is it possible to come up with a "new" opening in... Started 07/16/15 at 05:20:21 by Bogojump |

Polugajewskij with 15...Dc7 and 15...Dxb2
As a years-long Najdorf player, I switched all over against 6. Lg5 before settling on 6...Sbd7. I quite like it, but was also thinking of adding another line just to have in the posession. The three p...

Najdorf vs. Kan
I've been a Najdorf devotee for many years but it seems I haven't been able to find a good antidote against the 6.Bg5 variation. I hate the Poisoned Pawn. I've played both Kasparov's 7...Qc7 and the f...

Najdorf with 5. f3
Hi everybody !
Against the Najdorf, I play against stronger players : 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. f3 !? With that move, I can play a Maróczy Bind and develop my pieces naturally. <... Started 01/28/14 at 16:57:47 by MrPatate |

Learning about the Fischer-Sozin with White.
Hi, are there good free articles available online about the Fischer-Sozin setup (Bc4), for White in the Open Sicilian (all kinds of sicilians)?
Thanks a lot. Started 12/04/13 at 17:08:37 by nocteus |
