Milner-Barry Gambit
I suppose we might see a few more Milner-Barry Gambits in the near future. Not only has Carlsen played it, but it also features as the recommendation against the French in new books on 1. e4 by both G...

C02: French Advance for White Suggestion
I have always played 6.a3 in the advance but just wing it after that.  I am finally willing to put some time in to learning the lines.  
Can anyone suggest what lines are best for white in the ad...

C02: French Advance - Kupreichik Variation
What do people think of the Kupreichik Variation in the Advance French after 1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. e5 c5 4. c3 Nc6 5. Be3!?  It certainly seems to offer interesting play, and I've scored well with it.

C02: Philosophical Question on Advanced
I am wondering if you play the advanced against Caro-Kann does it mean that you have to play it against the French as well? In other words, how inconsistent is playing the advanced against Caro-Kann a...

I have had particula...
