Pirc 4 Bf4: Best Lines/Move Orders
Greetings.
There is no shortage of ways to meet the Pirc defence (1.e4 d6 2.d4 Nf6 3.Nc3 g6). Already at move four white has quite a wide choice of moves and not least of these are the two bishop... Started 02/06/18 at 19:03:04 by Confused_by_Theory « Pages 1 2 ... 7 8 9 all »  |

Austrian 150 Attack
I've been experimenting with playing e4, d4, Nc3, Be3 and now f4.
It's not mentioned much in books, as chapters on the 150 Attack concentrate on the regular themes without mentioning the f4 idea ... Started 12/17/18 at 12:53:46 by RdC |

The Classical Pirc
Hi.
I just watched parts of GM Hammer's video series on 1.e4 for Chess24. Worth a look if you want some decent line to play that is not terribly hard to understand. He actually recommends on... Started 10/18/19 at 11:21:28 by Confused_by_Theory |

150 Attack
It's amazing how strong the 150 Attack can be against slightly dubious play. Here's a case in point. 7. h3 isn't necessary and 9 e5 is a fairly routine punt. By playing 9. .. Nd7 instead of 9. .. dxe5...

Repertoire books vs Pirc
I have been collating the choices of various repertoire books vs the Pirc. I'd be grateful if you can fill any gaps.

The Modern Pirc by Viktor Bologan
I put it here because of the title but there are some modernish lines too:

Move Order Issue in Marin's Pirc DVD?
So, Marin recommends 1 e4 d6 2 d4 Nf6 3 Nc3 g6 4 Be3 Bg7 5 Qd2 0-0, and consequently, 4 Bg5 Bg7 5 Qd2 0-0, which is liable to transpose following Bh6.
What I'm confused about is what happens afte... Started 10/06/15 at 18:55:35 by Mainline_Novelty |

Is it time for me to say farewell to the Pirc?

6. e5 Austrian Attack -- Black can easily equalize
It seems that with 8... Nxc3 Black can easily equalize against White's 6. e5 in the Austrian attack. Does White have anything in this line that I am missing?

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 |
