Hi all,
I am wondering why 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 Bg7 4.e4 0-0 5.Nf3 d6 6.Be2 c5 isn't played more?  I think it is due to 7. 0-0 Nc6 8.d5 Na5 and now 9Bf4??  Is that the case?   
Thanks,<br /...

New KID Book From Everyman
It looks like everyman is "uncovering" the classical King's Indian. Although the title immediately makes people look suspicious, I'm expecting some interesting stuff.

Move-order and Averbakh variation
Hello !
I have noticed that, usually, when some White player wants to get an Averbakh against the King's Indian, he starts with 5. Be2 rather than 5. Nf3.
Is there any good reason for this ?...
