Ok if White can play d4, but what about the obvious 9.Be3 Nd4 ...

Has anyone received GM4/GM5? If so, where is your location? I had mine ordered from Quality Chess website, but I do not know if they shipped them or not yet.

Traditionally it has been thought that Black should meet 9. Be3 with 9...Nd4.

About your game:

Marin thinks you should have played 9.Be3 Nc7 10. d4 cxd4 11. Nxd4 Bd7

Marins mentions recent success by FM Tiberiu using this line.

I am afraid he gives this line against the KID, look at the extracts of the coming book.

I will get both books today!

I'm excited to see what Marin recommends. That KID line with e4 doesn't look that great, I hope he gives another line too (also I have stopped playing the botvinnik).

Last week-end i played my old love the Botvinnik variation against the King's Indian but as usual i was a bit struggling, do you see where i could play better ? I dont think that White can claim a plus in this variation ...
1 c4 g6 2 g3 Bg7 3 Bg2 Nf6 4 Nc3 0-0 5 e4 d6 6 Nge2 c5 7 0-0 Nc6 8 d3 Ne8 9 h3 Nc7 10 f4 f5
11 Be3 Ne6 12 a3 Ned4 13 Rb1 a5 14 Bf2 Bd7 15 Nxd4 Nxd4 16 exf5 Bxf5 17 g4 Bd7 18 Bh4 Bc6
19 Nd5 Bf6 20 Bxf6 exf6 21 Re1 Kh8 22 Qd2 a4 and 1/2 in 42 moves.

KID players will also adopt the move order: 1.c4 g6 2.g3 Bg7 3. Bg2 d6 4. Nc3 e5
I dont have Marin's book, I only looked at the index online. The chapter on the botvinnik set-up seems to be coming from 1. c4 e5 2. Nc3 Nc6, but the above move order is designed to keep the c-pawn flexible and play ...Nc6 in response to Nf3 but go for other stuff in the event of white going botvinnink, often including a direct c6, eg.: f5-Nf6-c6 (as played by Kasparov a long time ago), c6-a6-b5 (this one's intersting as despite being very rarely played it has a 100% score for black, at least for games in the last 8 yrs), Ne7-Nd7-f5 (as played by Milov and others).
Does Marin cover all this stuff? (Well, Im sure he does, Im just curious as to what he recommends)


Marin Addresses this in some detail. when black plays an early c6 and f7-f5 he generally recommends exf5 followed by d3-d4 or f2-f4 depending on move-order and other circumstances. I think that in order to keep the repertoire consistent with KID- and dutch move-orders he has refrained from trying to use the otherwise quite useful trick to try to keep the d-pawn home on d2 to be able to play d2-d4 in one go.
If memory serves me right the chapter covering this is based on the move-order 1.c4 e5 2.g3 d6 3.Bg2 g6

From my own experience Black often get a good versus bad bishop with more space (Bishop d7 against Bg2) or even better a Knight against a bad bishop. In other words the position seems to me dangerous for White.
