Warnig to the very few adherents of Owen's Defence
Sadly in his new book "1.d4 - Ratgeber gegen Unorthodoxe Verteidigungen" Bronznik recommends one of the most ambitious and dangerous lines against our marginal defence.

English Defence - Books question
Hi all,
I have a copy of Daniel King's book on the English Defence and also own Bauer's "Play 1. ..-b6". Can anyone tell me if it's useful to purchase Odessky's book on the same opening as well? ... Started 01/15/10 at 10:41:19 by René |

1...b6 can't take it seriously
I can't take this opening seriously and therefore I haven't learnt anything concrete against it yet. What is considered to be the best line for white? Btw what is this defence called?

Below is considered the line 1.e4 b6 2.d4 Bb7 3.Bd3 Nf6!? 4.Nd2! and now 4…Nc6!? as an alternative to the `French approach' starting out with 3…e6 and/or 4…e6.

In the English I have been looking at 1.d4 e6 2.c4 b6 3.a3. My main source was the old 1987 Keene, Plaskett & Tisdall book (which is actually a good book, see my comment on not all Keene books being b...

Now he's REALLY flipped! -- Owen's TN on move 4?
In the position after 1 e4 b6 2 d4 Bb7 3 Bd3 Nf6 4 Nc3, late one night after -- honest! -- only a couple of drinks, I began to wonder about the rather bizarre 4 ...b5!?. There seems to be no obvious r...

English Defence repetoire, 1.d4 e6 2.Nf3
