Underrated Alekhine Lines for White
What, in your opinion, are the most underrated or underestimated or even unknown lines that White can try against the Alekhine?
I offer one: 4. Be2. It's old and forgotten, and looks like a slow ... Started 01/08/05 at 11:01:37 by lnn2 |

Voronezh Attack
It seems the Alekhine has met it's Waterloo in the form of the Voronezh attack? Black is not just losing but getting slaughtered. What say you GM types on what Black is to do, to at least get a draw, ...

Alekhine - really a sound opening?

Rare and remarkably good move for white.
I recently faced a quite rare and annoying move, 6.d5. Hard to see what is wrong with this move. White seems to aim for a pleasant advantage without much effort.
