Pirc Classical 6...Nc6 7.d5 Ne5!? [B08]
I was just checking the March update from IM Sam Collins where he states that white has next to nothing in the opening.
Now I wonder if he talks about 9.Bg5 which I analyzed heavily last year. It looks to me as a nice try for some advantage although I admit things can quickly become extremely complicated. http://chess-brabo.blogspot.com/2015/05/prophilaxis.html Started 03/07/16 at 09:50:18 by brabo |

Pirc for CC
I've been reading through a number of the Pirc threads, all of which seem to share a consistent refrain: the opening is fine, but White has so many viable options to make Black's life uncomfortable th...

Pirc New chessbase disc
I have just bought volume 2 of Marin's DVD on the Pirc. While his books are great I didn't really like his Leningrad DVD- which didn't really present a lot in the way of theory. This latest DVD on the...

Classical Pirc
What is the current status of the Classical Pirc? It seems to me that much of the talk about the sad demise of the Pirc surrounds the Austrian and 150 Attack lines. Can anyone comment on the Classic...

Pirc 2.c4!?
Was wondering how others here thought this should be handled. 1.e4 d6 2.c4 and if Black continues with normal Pirc development White will probably setup a Botvinnik formation. It looks like Black ha...

Pirc Move Order Issues
Hi guys,
I noticed a while back that certain readers of James Vigus's recent work on the Pirc were complaining that he didn't cover move orders such as 1.e4 d6 2.Nc3 or 2.f4. This is a vali... Started 04/02/08 at 01:20:05 by Edward Dearing |
