playing h4 without f3 Hi Guys, I played this game recently where white attacks with Be2 and h4 without playing f3. Black won, but white missed something big somewhere. See if you can find it. 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d... Started 07/20/05 at 12:00:31 by krigerstein (Guest)	0	1158	07/20/05 at 12:00:30 By: krigerstein (Guest)
New possible trend After playing at ICC after a long inactive time I noticed a new trend. When I played White vs serveral different Najdorf players they often transposed to Dragon after Be2 allowing me to play my W... Started 08/23/13 at 10:53:12 by bragesjo	1	5343	08/23/13 at 22:40:09 By: MNb
Possilbe new Dragon trend It looks like the Dragon is in excellent shape at higher levels since both Anand and Shirov played this line 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 g6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nc6 5. Nc3 Bg7 6.

Dragon with 6. Bd3 Salut, whats the idea behind 6. Bd3 in the "normal" Dragon (1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cxd 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Sc3 g6 6. Bd3)? In my opinion bishop has to go to e2 or c4 ... Regards, e2e4 Started 10/04/06 at 11:04:25 by e2e4	1	2705	10/04/06 at 19:44:01 By: bragesjo
6.Bg5... is it dangerous? Hi Guys, There is an interesting article on Jeremy Silman's site that claims that 6.Bg5 is problematic for black. I want your opinion on this. http://www.jeremysilman.com/chess_bits_pieces/0... Started 11/30/05 at 15:56:00 by kriegerstein	1	1526	11/30/05 at 20:04:12 By: lost highway
Vitolin's dragon attack. I was hoping the dragon board could look at this position and assess it. Ward's book's don't have any actual games and I could not find any strong players that played the position. I am wondering... Started 11/09/04 at 11:54:58 by Teyko	1	1853	11/09/04 at 21:46:01 By: MNb
Classical Dragon I've just started to play Sicilian, and really like to get into the dragon. Just know studying Wards last book on it. I have also picked up some anti-sicilian books to cover up alternate white approac... Started 04/18/04 at 06:09:29 by Faja	1	1721	04/29/04 at 18:45:21 By: Faya (Guest)

Cheapo line for white Here's a pathetic cheapo line white can play against the Dragon. It's had a pretty good success rate for me in blitz, but generally only works once per opponent 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.N... Started 01/15/03 at 17:15:44 by Lwolf123	2	2790	01/15/03 at 18:38:11 By: Lwolf123

Early Bg5 in dragon So I see that the limited analysis on 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 g6 6.Bg5 ... is generally dubbed "ok for black" with the simple 6..Bg7.

A Qd2 Dragon without the bishop on d4 Actually, I posted about this in another thread, but I think it fits here better.

Does the f3/O-O Dragon have a name? What is the name of the Classical Dragon variation where white plays Be2 or Bc4, coupled with an early f3 but he does not O-O-O? White acts like he might play the Yugoslav by feinting with an early f... Started 08/01/05 at 12:40:27 by lost highway	3	1982	09/18/05 at 23:42:09 By: basqueknight - Ex Member

Bc4 Hi everyone, I am wondering about the normal dragon. The question is if 6.Bc4 a good line? Meaning is it better than the lavenfish or 6.g3 but not as good as 9.0-0-0 or 9Bc4??? thanks,<br ... Started 04/01/09 at 23:41:57 by Zatara	5	8314	08/21/17 at 07:15:57 By: kylemeister
