Am I hallucinating, or was there (perhaps some years ago) an article in Chess Life about Alex Goldin teaching a quick French rep to a student that centered around the Fort Knox or perhaps Rubinstein variations?  I've been wracking my brain, but can't recall.  Does anyone have any recollection of this?


I seem to recall the article you reference (since I am a French player.)  But I couldn't tell you for sure... my old Chess Life magazines are sadly disorganized and strewn in various places around my house and attic.

Not sure about Chess Life, but Paul Motwani had a chapter on a French repertoire including the Fort Knox in his second book, COOL Chess.

The only thing that I remember that fits that description is a chapter (or part of a chapter) in Pirc Alert (or if not that, one of the repertoire books co-authored by Alburt) describing how Chernin (?) taught the Fort Knox to some class player. Since it's in a book on the Pirc, perhaps that explains why you couldn't find it.  Wink
