1.e4 g6 2.d4 Bg7 3.Nf3 d6 4.Be3 (Anti Modern)
Hi.
The move order: 1.e4 g6 2.d4 Bg7 3.Nf3 d6 4.Be3 Appears to cause some problems for the Modern player. There is an option of going for the Pirc with 4...Nf6 and 95% of the time we would get 5.Nc... Started 02/10/20 at 20:43:03 by Confused_by_Theory |

Dangerous to use the Modern Defense all the time?
I've been curious about this idea on the suitability of using the Modern Defense against almost anything White throws at you.

Any move orders the Modern should avoid?
I'm curious about move orders in the Modern that shouldn't be used when White uses certain openings that might trick or confuse Modern defenses.
For example, I was surprised one day into being tr... Started 04/18/15 at 00:41:10 by HagenWatch1 |

Davies Modern vs. Tiger's Modern?
I was wondering if Nigel Davies "Starting Out: The Modern Defense" and "Tiger's Modern" cover the same variations, and if anyone who's read both could compare them? I know they both deal with an early...

Modern Defence 1 e4 g6 2 d4 Bg7 3 Nc3 d6 4 Nf3 a6

By using the sequence 1. e4 g6 2. d4 Bg7 3 Nc3 c5, Black can tempt a Closed Sicilian player into positions that can transpose to Open Sicilians. The problem is that if White is not to be tempted into ...
