"People should do this or do that" is proscribing. And you are looking for trouble, pal. Next time you deliberately use abusive language a complaint will go to the moderator and the administrator. Calling me a moron is a grave insult to all those having an IQ considerably lower than average.

Dictator that your are.

More like -/+ but anyway, better ways to spend your white time than try to grovel for a draw here.

And the positions are not fascinating either.
Analyse a =+ Noteboom or Botvinnik, I get it, but a Caro with a pawn less... yawn.

I don't proscribe what people think, MNb, moron. Rather, I say what   I think. And,  besides the BDG, I have played quite a few other openings...

Not as much as you seem to worship your backside, which pops up in your posts in and out of season. And we already know that silicon analysis scares you the pants off. No need to remind us.

Since we are talking about backsides, MNb, you were the one who wrote the above, correct? My pants are still on, thank you for asking.
In fact, I recently bought an expensive suit, with pants and jacket. 
So there.

You say I am a dictator? Bull. Merde, as the French say. No, I hold to the view that a man should use his brains more often to think, and depend less on computers for assistance when it comes to chess analyses!

I will post more analyses later, as it is 12:24 AM Eastern Standard Time, and I have a midterm in 12 hours.

But what's wrong with 5...Bf5 6 g4 Bg6 7 Ne5 e6 8 g5 Nd5 9 Qf3 ? Nothing!

Most players I have played never played 5...c6 against the BDG. And that is my point, right there: Only seasoned players will play 5...c6, people who know something against the BDG.  Where I live, I have seen experts, masters, IMs, GMs, play anything but 5...c6 against the BDG. 

I have seen the following played:

5...Bf5 6 Ne5 e6 6 g4 Bg6 7 g5 Nd5 (7...Nfd7, 7...Nh5, 7...Ng8) 8 Qf3 c6 9 Bd3

 5...Bg4 6 h3 Bxf3 (6...Bh5 7 g4 Bg6 8 Ne5 e6 9 g5 Nd5 10 Qf3 c6 11 Bd3)   7 Qxf3 c6
 5...e6

 5...g6

just to name a few.

And after 1 d4 d5 2 e4 de4 3 Nc3 Nf6 4 f3 I see the following:

  4...e3?! Langeheinecke Defense, usually played by cowards;
  4...Bf5 Vienna Defense;
  4...c5  Brombacher Counter-Gambit;
  4...g6  Albrecht Defense;
  4...Nc6  Lamb Defense;
  4...Nd5  every once in a while.
  4...e5?! Elbert Counter-Gambit;

Yeah, White's losing there. See above. And move on.

Not that I - and with me a few others - have noticed. FYI: Coward is not the English translation for Nieuweboer. As that one is probably too long, just call me Mr. MNb.

No, but I might in your Confederacy thread. If you learn some manners.

Gambit wrote on 03/10/09 at 12:56:25:

And also has been discussed that 5...Bf5 is superior. Again fully in the spirit of Diemer you don't care to give Black's best.

Gambit wrote on 03/10/09 at 12:56:25:

See Third.

Gambit wrote on 03/10/09 at 12:56:25:

Now that would be nice. Not the whole article, I am not going to waste my time going over dozens of irrelevant lines, just a couple of main lines.

Excuse me, Mr. Coward, but my responses have a point.

First, you guys seem to frigging worship the computer to the point where the chess engine gives you the answers. Not I.

Second, I have no idea what Diemer wrote in 1943. Care to translate the article and post it here?

Third, I suggested, and others agreed, that after 4...c6 5 Nxe4 was best. Then 5...Nxe4 6 fxe4 e5 7 Bc4 is what Diemer used to play.
But that has been discussed here.

Fourth, after 5...Bf5 6 Ne5 e6 7 g4 Bg6 8 g5 Nd5 9 Qf3 White has the edge.

Fifth, I'll try to post the 1997 article if I can.

I have plenty of contributions against the cowardly ...c6 lines. In fact, I wrote an article about defeating ...c6 lines, back in 1997. I would love to attach it here, but the file is too big.

Also, I have defeated my share of ...c6 players in OTB games.

Macho talk, my backside! What else to call cowardly lines that are not in the spirit of the great Romantic spirit of the 19th century? What else to call cowards like Uruk who chicken out of honest challenges?
