Sämish system. What's up? What is the state of Sämish theory these days? I haven't kept up much with opening theory for the last 18 years but back then the classical bayonet attack was still all the rage against the KID. That'...

State of the trendy Variation with a6-Nbd7 Hey, are there any ways to improve on the recen play of White players in the recently popular line with a6-Nbd7 followed by an eventual b5 pawn sac? Started 11/19/20 at 18:47:15 by mxstoe	12	6436	11/23/20 at 22:10:56 By: TopNotch
How is the Byrne variation doing these days? I noted this to be the most troubling variation for white in the games I played as black, even when I was the weaker player (way back in the day) and ended my fear of the saemisch.

6 Bg5 Saemisch Benko style I recently came across 1 d4 Nf6 2 c4 g6 3 Nc3 Bg7 4 e6 d6 5 f3 00 6 Bg5 a6 7 Qd2 Nbd7 8 Nge2 c5 9 d5 b5 10 cxb5 Qa5 11 a4 Nb6 12 Nc1 axb5<b... Started 04/28/19 at 09:17:32 by snakebite	3	3020	04/29/19 at 19:54:47 By: snakebite
The modern Saemisch (Eric Montany) 6 Bg5 system In the Modern Benoni main line (Chapter 4), Black can play an early Nh7, for example, 9...a6 10 a4 h6 11 Be3 Nh7 . Any views on how White should play eg 12 Nge2 Nd7 13 Nc1 or Nd1? Started 08/15/18 at 11:46:09 by Krudos	1	2134	10/17/18 at 16:57:43 By: ErictheRed
6..Na6 vs. the Samisch After 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 Bg7 4.e4 d6 5.f3 0-0 6.Be3 I'm wondering why 6..Na6 isn't played more often. What is White's best line against it? 7.Qd2 c5 and now is the problem 8.d5, 8.Nge2 or both?<... Started 07/28/17 at 16:11:31 by LeeRoth	1	2406	07/28/17 at 18:33:08 By: ErictheRed
Saemisch: 6...e5 7.d5 Nh5 queen sac I'm new to the King's Indian Saemisch, and one line I wouldn't look forward to as White is: 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 Bg7 4.e4 d6 5.f3 0–0 6.Be3 e5 7.d5 Nh5 8.Qd2 Qh4+ 9.g3 Nxg3!? 10.Qf2 Nxf1 11.Qxh...

Refutation to the Bronstein Queen Sac? The Bronstein Queen Sac is an interesting line but I couldnt find a single game on the 2014 ICCF database, which leads me to think the line is busted, at least for correspondence chess. But, what...

Interesting idea in the Panno I played a game this weekend that went 1 d4 Nf6 2 c4 g6 3 Nc3 Bg7 4 e4 d6 5 f3 0-0 6 Be3 Nc6 7 Qd2 a6 8 Nge2 Rb8 . . . and now 9 a4. What on earth was this move?

A curious occurrence in the Saemisch I wonder what's up with this. I noticed that a couple of days ago (in the first round of an open in Germany), Richard Rapport as Black played like this: 1. d4 d6 2. c4 g6 3. Nc3 Bg7 4. e4 Nf6 5. f3 ...

Saemisch gambit refuted? Hello, I have just joined the Chess Publishing site, and I'm enjoying it a lot. I also came across an analysis of the Saemisch gambit by GM Roman Dzindzichashvili where he claims that the line fa...

Conflict in the Saemisch... ? I wrote this letter to IM David Vigorito about his updates to his KID books. I think there is a gap in the coverage. Anyone knows something new about this ?

Saemisch Gambit Declined: one thing I've wondered ...is why, after 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 g6 3. Nc3 Bg7 4. e4 d6 5. f3 0-0 6. Be3 c5 7. Nge2, 7...cd seems to get so little attention.

Samisch 8.. Re8 Panno Just something distressingly computerish I stumbled across this while checking, and I'm not totally sure about. The line is: 1 d4 Nf6 2 c4 g6 3 Nc3 d6 4 e4 Bg7 5 f3 o-o 6 Be3 a6 7 Nge2 Nc6 8 Qd2... Started 08/13/11 at 08:42:41 by MartinC « Pages 1 2 all »	17	16265	08/19/11 at 19:00:51 By: fluffy
An idea against Saemisch 7.Nge2 Normally I play 7.Nge2 c6 as black however not long ago I wanted to try something different in a rapid game and played 7-exd4.

The Saemisch: in general & Nge2 move order Hi, I notice that the Saemisch isn't played anywhere near as frequently as classical lines and note too that computer evaluations in Saemisch lines often favour black!

Good books on the Saemisch? Are there any good recent books on the Saemisch? Primarily I am looking for something from White's point of view but really good books from Black's perspective are interesting too. Started 11/07/10 at 07:57:27 by tafl	3	5456	11/08/10 at 03:10:06 By: tafl
