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 »  |

Pirc 4 Bg5: Best Lines/Move Orders
I’m hoping to generate a discussion about the 4 Bg5 Pirc, a sharp and complicated variation which (along with its treatment in books) I’ve often found confusing!
Here’s my own thinking to date. A... Started 06/20/16 at 08:45:26 by Michael Ayton « Pages 1 2 ... 7 8 9 all » |

Pirc Stats
I worked out the occurences of the main White systems from my own Pirc games to get a feel of where I should spend my Pirc study time.
There were some expected things, i.e. Classical Nf3 systems... Started 03/12/18 at 20:43:43 by JEH « Pages 1 2 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 |

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.

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.

Is it time for me to say farewell to the Pirc?
Dear Aunty Chesspub,
The first e4 defence I "learned" as a teen was the Dragon. I knew little theory. When I got to a point of thinking I needed to learn some, I got a bit scared  Then I... Started 10/27/15 at 11:33:51 by JEH « Pages 1 2 all » |

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 |
