Instead of 8...c6 or 8...Re8 Black can also play 8...Ng4 9.Bg5 f6 at once. This leaves the choice open for one move yet.
  

The book had the effect good books usually have: it made the stupids more stupid, the intelligent more intelligent and the other thousands of readers remained unchanged.

Well it seems to me that a lot of people with older books on the Kings Indian might play this way. I my self started playing the Kings Indian in that fashion as the only reference i had was Some games from Bronstien from MGP. Even after getting starting out the kings indian i still play in this fashion quite often. Why? because i am more familiar with the games of the old guys and even if its not best it certainly is not bad. 

Im not sure what the stats are theses days on this variation but im not sure i would beleive them to be largley in whites favour.

I'm quite new to the KID, so I'm not terribly familiar with these lines, but I wonder if 11 ... g5 expands Black's attack on the kingside, or whether it's just weakening.  It seems quite rare, but it looks provocative.

All in all, I prefer 7 Nc6...

this 8....Re8 looks interesting and games are really good but what if white instead of 11.Bd2 (after this I think black is ok especially after Nf8 as position becomes really complicated but seems good for black in every variation) plays 11.Bh4 as it seems to me that after 11...Nf8 12.Nd2 Nh6 13.f3 Nf7 14.b4 Bh6 15. Bf2 f5 16.c5 is a lot better for white as in game Gligorič-Geller Monte Carlo 1967. Even 11... Nh6 12.Nd2 Nf7 13.f3 Bh6 14.Bf2 c6 15.dxc6 and after some preparatory work white manages to successfully throw in the c5 move with great pressure and even black losses material as in Nikoloff-I.Ivanov Canada 1986.

It seems to me that 8...c6 really is the best but still I aint totally satisfied with it so if somebody has any improvements or good variations in store he is welcome to make suggestions.

You might try 8 ... Re8, but I'm not sure this is necessarily any better than 8 ... c6.  The Bologan game below looks pretty persuasive, but I suspect that White can pose problems for Black with 10 Bg5 instead of 10 Bd2, after which 10 ... f6 11 Bd2 Nh6 12 Qc2 leaves me wishing that my rook was on f8 and not e8.  Indeed, Qc2 looks like it poses problems for Black's plans to push for ... f5, after 8 ... Re8.  For another game in this line, see Zakharstov-Yanvarjov below.

Personally, I prefer 7 ... Nc6, which invariably leads to sharper play...

KID- Nbd7 variation

Could you please give your opinions on the main variation of the Nbd7 variation.

Which variation do you prefer after 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 Bg7 4.e4 d6 5.Nf3 0-0 6.Be2 e5 7.0-0 Nbd7 8.Be3

I looked at c6 but to me it seemed a little passive especially the main variations(9.d5 c5 10.Ne1 Ne8 11.g4). What is the current state of theory? Is 8...Ng4 9.Bg5 f6 more active or what variaton do you suggest.

THX for answers.
