Semi-Slav question....
Hi everyone. I would like to know which line currently gives black the most trouble in the Semi-Slav? The Botvinnik is wild and complicated but black can avoid it with h6. The Meran doesn't seem to tr...

Noteboom book
I've been experimenting with the Noteboom variation and I like it. Not many books on it though. Anyone know of a good recent book on the variation?

Anti -Noteboom Systems
The moves 1,d4 d5 2,c4 e6 3,Nf3 c6 and now 4,Qc2 is particularly annoying to the Noteboom player. I am looking to avoid playing the Meran and all the theory that goes with it. Against 3,Nc3 c6 4,e3 I ...

Botvinnik Semi-Slav 9. exf6!?

Botvinnik Variation
In the botvinnik variation of the semi-slav I was recently confronted with an interesting new idea:
