Blumenfeld
I was pretty sure that there was a thread on the Blumenfeld already, but I can't find it, so perhaps we could start a new one. I remember buying a small Trends volume on the Blumenfeld many years ago...

1.e4 Nc6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3 dxe4 (Nimzovich Defence)
The 3...dxe4 variation of the Nimzovich has gotten a lot of bad press recently and was hoping to have a discussion of it to see if this was truly deserved. I still think 3...e6 is a decent move...

Old Indian, classical setup
Hi, my apologies is this is not the right forum for this opening. Is there good book on the Old Indian with the classical setup (Nbd7, Be7,etc.), that is to say without ...e4 or ...Bf5? As an e4 e5 pl...

Bg5 vs the dutch?
Hi all,
I was thinking of giving Bg5 a try vs the dutch. Looking on line I see there are a few books out on it. Can anyone recommend a good one for the white side? Thanks. Started 05/09/16 at 20:12:07 by Mtal |

Dzindzi-Indian : Crazy Benko/Fajarowicz Hybrid

Sidelines of Leningrad Dutch via 1. d4 d6
I was thinking of adding Leningrad Dutch as a reserve opening, but by avoiding 1. d4 f5 sidelnes like 2. Nc3, 2. Bg5, all sorts of gambits and what have you, by doing 1. d4 d6 then go ...f5/...Nf6/......

Anti-dutch line 1 d4 e6 2 g4!?

Interesting Modern Defense move order/trap
I just played a blitz game and ran into what I can only describe as a strategic trap. Here's the PGN:
Any thoughts on White's best here after 3...Nc6? I'd never seen the move before; I guess 5.d5! must be the way to go. Black played a surprising 10...Bxd4! and was already at least equal. Started 07/09/14 at 23:55:17 by ErictheRed |

Note to Glenn
Try to be a bit more 'Daring'...this isn't the Gruenfeld only section. Note how diverse the interest is (primarily Dutch) in the topics people post about. Arguably the Gruenfeld is less 'played out', ...

the dark knight system
Schuyler's book about a repertoire with 1...Nc6 looks interesting, but in one of the first lines I examined I'm not totally convinced by his analysis:

Nc6 tricky transposition
A bit exotic, but I think relevant for 1...Nc6 theory, as the following two lines both arrive at the same position:
