Najdorf 6.f4!? I can't find 6.f4 mentioned in the Naj e-book - but it seems to crop up quite a lot. I tend to play 6...Qc7 and then take it into a Dragon-type set up with ...g6 and ...Bg7 - reserving the option whe...

What is the proper response to 5.Bg5 e5 in Najdorf I'm assuming e5 is bad against Bg5 but It's not in NCO and it doesn't appear to be a trivial advantage. It looks like the Shveshnikov but when I play Bxf6, after either Qxf6 or xf6 my knight looks pre... Started 01/22/05 at 23:01:48 by arthur (Guest)	3	1760	01/23/05 at 21:16:22 By: MNb
