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 |

6.Bg5... is it dangerous?

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 |

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.

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
