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...

Qa5 line I have seen several posts referring to Ward's 2 dragon books advocating Qa5 + Rfc8 vs the Yugoslav attack. Apparently it is considered more or less refuted, but I have had some trouble finding the exa... Started 06/28/14 at 04:32:41 by Ludde « Pages 1 2 all »	28	30842	11/14/16 at 01:23:35 By: AntonioAg
Yugoslav Attack 9 Bc4 Soltis with Kb1 and ...Re8 I just saw GM Chris Ward praising blacks openingchoice in the game Robert Hovhannisyan - Luis Marcos Medarde Santiago: [pgn][Event "4th Memorial Oliver Gonzalez"] [Site "?"] [Date "2015....\|/pgn] However on my blog I wrote that I found a modest advantage for white with 18.fxg4 see http://chess-brabo.blogspot.be/2015/10/mistakes.html So I wonder if I missed something.

New move possibly refutes one Dragon line: Although not the most popular line in the Dragon, the 12...a6 variation had been 'playable' even on ICCF. However, I found a rare novelty that seemed to upend the entire variation for black. Here's a ... Started 06/23/12 at 10:49:17 by FirebrandX	13	17702	06/27/12 at 14:47:24 By: PANFR
