Karpov - Gik line Frankly speaking, I was highly surprised with a reference to Smieszek-Bogdanov in GM Ward's Nov 2025 Dragon update https://www.chesspublishing.com/content/3/nov25.htm as 16...Qxc3? is a well known ope...

Is the 10.h4 Chinese Dragon really refuted??? I know there was a NIC about this, but I don't know what the line was. After 10...Rb8 is white supposed to push h5? Otherwise it would probably just transpose. Thanks. Started 06/05/08 at 04:09:50 by Vader	12	7023	08/01/08 at 12:25:17 By: Strategy_Rules
Anti-Chinese Dragon 9.Bc4 Bd7 10.Bb3...now what? Playing on playchess.com, I've noticed more people holding back on 10.O-O-O and playing an alternate move that appears to be for the purpose of preventing the Chinese Dragon. For example, 10.h4 or 10... Started 06/25/05 at 19:06:30 by lost highway	12	5227	06/28/05 at 20:12:33 By: Scholar
An early new idea in the Soltis Although I believe in the well-known lines in the Soltis variation with 13.Bg5 Rg5, it might take Your interest to see a fresh idea!

Chinese Dragon questions After looking at the latest subsciption update I have two questions. 1. Why did G Jones (2567) play Na5 on move 10?

Another response to the prophylactic 12.Kb1 this is radical.... seriously radical... in fact dearing doesnt even discuss this move because it is considered so "positionally incorrect" but after 12.Kb1 I am proposing that 12...a5! is a goo...

Interesting try for advantage.... Hey guys. My friend just played this line against me, and I don't think it's mentioned in Dearing's book.
