I remember a game Kasparov - Short from maybe the 90's or even before where the Knight stood sitting on b4 enjoying the view from a safe distance of his Majesty being slaughtered on the other side of the kingdom.  Grin
I remember it clearly because it was the first time I happened to see f5 used to attack the benoni.

In NCO Nunn stopped at 10. e4, considering it "plus equals vertical."  Offhand I would indeed be inclined to put the knight on c7 rather than b4, probably meeting f4 and e5 with ...Nfe8.

Encyclopaedia gives 7. d5 Bf5 8. Nh4 Bd7 9. O-O Na6 10. e4 Rb8 11. a4 Nb4 12. f4 e6 13. f5 exd5 14. exd5 a6 from a game Van der Sterren,P-Larsen,B/Reykjavik 1986 and then 15. a5! (Larsen) would have been "±" ("plus minus vertical" as Radjabov says). 

I think there is not much to add 24 years later. Such a knight at b4 does pretty much nothing useful there in these kind of positions. Unless I'm mistaken there has not been a single GM game touching this line ever since.

One variation that isn't covered by Avrukh in his repertoire book is 6...c5 7.d5 Bf5, which aims to disrupt White's coordination. If 8.0-0 Ne4 9.Ne4 Be4 then Black has no real problems, but 8.Nh4 Bd7 9.0-0 Na6 10.e4 Nc7 gives Black counterplay based on ...b5. Perhaps 8.Nd2 keeps a small edge.
  

All our dreams come true if we have the courage to pursue them.

I thought I had seen the "Modern Benoni" in the book as well as the "Reluctant Benoni" (position is reached after 6...c5 7.d5 Na6). So I don't see much of an issue right now.



You are right. Chapter 10 is about the position after 6...c5 7.d5 (although it is reached via a 2...c5 move order).
  

You tell the young people of today that...

no (or i can see) there is modern benoni but analisy start with 9 0-0 ecc ecc...

I really believe is quite strange for a "complete repertoire" so well write don't have the pano... maybe i am just an idiot and i haven't found this variation on the book.Smiley

(i am "out of book" a little too early ehehhe)


After 6...c5 7.d5 e6 8.Nc3/8.0-0 exd5 9.cxd5 you're back in book again, though missing some deviations on the way, for example if black delays exd5. 

Have you checked/asked at the Quality Chess Blog?

Perhaps he considers this under the Modern Benoni instead?

I have search for the panno variation with 6..c5 but i am wrong o there isn't ? 

There isn't for some order of move reason o simply because there is no space for this interesting variation?.

If someone can answer resolve and intere moorning of frustration research.

(excusme for my english)

(p.s. this is my first post, i am a weak player but i really love this forum a love to read your interesting post since months)
