It was Nigel Short, in his game against Karpov in Dortmund 1 997, who re-introduced the daring pawn advance 5.e4! after 4.'ifc2 0-0 in the Classical Nimzo-Indian.

:.�·� '!J� . ;: ttS. � 'i!•'it . . ·�·· · ��· After Karpov's playable, but cau tious reply 5 ... d6, White kept some advantage and managed to win the game. The question 'how should Black really play here to maintain the balance?' was left unanswered. In the following years, however, the world's top players remained faith ful to the reliable 5.a3 and ignored this new and more energetic option for White. Occasionally White would use 5 .e4 to surprise his oppo nent - often with striking success but the move remained unpopular among leading players. The pro verbial exception to the rule was the TV game Krarnnik-Adams, Co logne 1998, but in spite of his vic tory, Kramnik sounded pessimistic
about White's true chances in that variation. What the author of these lines thinks, will be explained in the comments to this recent game:
Ivanisevic,Ivan Gligoric,Svetozar Herceg Novi tt 2001 (6)
1 .d4 tt:lf6 2.c4 e6 3.tt:lc3 �b4 4.'®'c2 0-0 5.e4 d5 Being theoretically 'better devel oped' Black needs to open the po sition. Less efficient is 5 ... d6 (see the afore-mentioned game Short Karpov, or Kir. Georgiev-Epishin, Germany 1999), and risky is 5 . . . c5 6.e5 cd4 7.a3 dc3 8.ab4 tt:lg4 9.'ifc3 etc., as in Goldin-Z. Al masi, Yugoslavia 1998.
6.e5 tt:le4 7.�d3 White should hurry with his devel opment. Inferior is 7 .a3 �c3 8.bc3 c5 9.�d3 'iVa5 ! etc. (Kelecevic Abramovic, Yugoslavia 1 984).
7...c5 8.cd5 In case of the immediate 8.tt:le2 cd4 9.tt:ld4 Black has the move 9 ... dc4 ! .
8. . .ed5 9.tt:le2 cd4 White is better after the 'normal' 9 . . . tt:lc6 1 0.0-0 tt:ld4 (not 10 ...cd4 1 1 .tt:ld5 !) 11.tt:ld4 cd4 12.tt:le4 de4 1 3.�e4 '®'h4 14.'iVd3 �e6 1 5.a3 �a5 1 6.g3 'iVh5 1 7.�f4 (Goldin Gligoric, Yugoslavia 1 998).

The only way to meet the deadly threat of 1 8 ... lLld3.
I called the second of the three arti cles on the Polugaevsky Variation I made for New In Chess Yearbook 'Questions about 1 0.ef6' . It is quite normal for a trainer to ask his pupil questions but it is quite ex traordinary that ifl raise a question in an article, a former pupil starts answering it! I always knew that some of my suggestions and con clusions in this Polu-trilogy would be improved by White or even re futed. In such a sharp line that's al most inevitable. Peter knows better than anyone else that I am not easily satisfied. No matter what a pupil does, I think he or she can always do better. However, this time Peter really deserves my praise. In the first half of the year he faced the Polugaevsky in a blindfold game against Ivanchuk and won a hair-raising game, ana lysed in Yearbook 59. At the World Team Championship in Erevan Peter faced another line of the Polugaevsky, initiated by 12 ... J:::!.a7. He wrapped up the Ira nian talent Ghaem Maghami very nicely in 27 moves. I would even call it a brilliant game, although Peter may think that something is wrong with me and I might be ill. His opponent underestimated the strength of the g7 pawn. I compared Peter' s game with my original analyses of Saravanan Mitrakanth, as given on page 2627 in Yearbook 59. White's play evidently forced me to analyse it all over again and this is what I dis covered.
1 8... tLld3 1 9.'ifd3 ed3 20.il.b6 ab6 21 .ttld4!? White hopes that this active ma noeuvre, eyeing the weak b5 square, is an improvement over the afore-mentioned game Ivanisevic Gomez Esteban, which saw 2 1 .\tod2 il.c5 22.tLlc l .!:!.d8 23J�i e l .itf5 24.ttlb3 .ite7 25.l::le 3 J:!.ac8 26.J:i:ae 1 l:i:c4 27.t2lc 1 h5 with suf ficient counterplay in the end game.
1 3...�h6! This was first played in I vanisevic Gomez Esteban, Elgoibar 2000, and it looks like an improvement over the usual 1 3 ... 'ifh5, when it is more problematic for the queen to rejoin the battle. In the afore mentioned game Kramnik-Adams, Cologne 1998, after 1 3 ... 'tl:Yh5 14. .itg2 lLlb6 (if 14 ... lLJdc5 1 5.0-0 .2.c3 1 6.bc3 .ith3 1 7.f5 !) 1 5.0-0 �c3 1 6.bc3 il.h3 ( 1 6 ...il.g4 ! ? is less clear) 1 7.f5 il.g2?! (Kramnik recommended 1 7 .. .f6 1 8.e6 .l::!. ac8 as a good chance for Black of ob taining strong counterplay, but who knows?) 1 8.�g2 lL:Jc4 (even here Kramnik considers 1 8 .. .f6 19.g4 'tl:Ye8 20.e6 'tl:Yc8 to be Black's chance to fight back) 19.g4 'tl:Yh4 20.f6 ! White had a winning attack.
1 4.il.g2
21 .. .f6! Was this a surprise for White, this move found over the board?
22.e6 The opening of the position cannot suit White.
22 ....itc5 23.tLlcb5 .!;!.a4! White claimed that he had over looked this move in his calcula tions. He made his reply after a long think, having seen that 24 ... J:!.d4 25.lLJd4 �d4 26 . .!ld3 �b2 27 .f5 is quite playable for White.
24. .!ld1 il.d4 25.b3! J:i.a5 26.lLld4 .ite6! 27.b4!? z:!.d5 28.lLle6 z:!.e8 29.'>itd2 J:!.e6 30. .!:!.de1 30. .!:!.he 1 ? J:!:e2 ! would lead to a lost pawn endgame for White !
30...�f7
1 4... 'ii!Ya6!
Draw agreed. Black made the offer because of his - premature impression that reaching a draw is quite easy for White.
by Tibor Karolyi VB 59
Leko,Peter Ghaem Maghami,Ehsan Erevan Wch-tt 2001 {7)
1 .e4 The only first move Peter plays. It may turn out one too few. Kaspa9
rov's last matches have shown that it can be a big disadvantage to have only one opening move at a world championship match. Anand had such a disaster against the Dragon against Kasparov in 1 995. Right after that match Anand started to play 1 .d4 as well. Kasparov did not prepare 1 .d4 against Kramnik and when the sting went out of 1 .e4, it cost him dearly. Of course Kram nik himself is an example of the contrary, as he was victorious with 1 .d4 only.
Taking the c2 pawn is best. In my analysis of the game Saravanan Mitrakanth, Indian Champion ship, Hyderabad 1 994, in Year book 59 I failed to point out the refutation of 1 8 . . .'Wia3? There are two !
1 ...c5 V2:lf3 d6 3.d4 cd4 4.tt:ld4 tt:lf6 5.tt:lc3 a6 6.�g5 This is the influence of Amador Rodriguez. He is a strong GM, but an even better trainer. When we both worked for Peter, I saw his good effect on Peter's chess. He contributed a lot to Peter raising his Elo from 2660 to 2745.
6 ... e6 7.f4 b5!?
Risky, of course, but it can be play able.
8.e5 deS 9.fe5 'Wic7 1 0.ef6 'Wie5 1 1 .�e2 'Wig5 1 2.0-0 l:ta7 Ivanchuk played 12 ... 'Wie5 against Leko at this year's Monaco Amber tournament. Peter won that game after a razor-sharp battle. It is not clear, however, whether White had an advantage in the opening and I would very much like to know what improvement Peter had pre pared against it.

1 9.tt:lfg5! A 2660 player is already a terribly strong player for most of us, and we have problems imagining what a 2750 player does better. By the time Peter made this huge jump one thing among several I noticed was that he had visibly improved his handling of sharp Sicilians! 19.tt:lfg5 ! is an excellent move. It
opens the f-file and puts pressure on e6 and f7. Some commentators thought it was a novelty, but it was not. In my analysis in Yearbook 59 I only gave the immediate rook sac rifice 19 . .!:i:b4. This looks danger ous as well, but Black seems able to hold after 1 9 ... �b4 20.fg7. Not with 20 ... �c3? because of Van der Vliet's 1978 refutation 2 1 .tt:ld4 ! , e.g. 2 l . . . �d4 22.�d4 J:!.g8 23.ttlf6 'it>d8 24.'iYb6 '!J.c7 25.J:!.d1 (25.tt:lg8 'iYe2 26.�d6 also suf fices) 25...�d1 (25 . . .

1 9... 'iVc7 Otherwise White could pose seri ous problems with 20 . .t!.fc l .
20.J:!.b4 A pretty diversion, for sure ! In Yearbook 12 there is this game by Vladimir Dimitrov against Niko lay Vasilev, Pravets 1 988/89, in which he played 20.l:i:bdl . He also made some very nice analyses of it. However I think Black can get away with both 20 ... �e4 and 20 . . . g6. 20J:l:bdl ! ? swaps off the defending rook, but according to my analyses it is just a bit slow.

During the Mirabal Active Chess Tournament held in Madrid earlier this year, my friend and co-author Diego Adla got the chance to play FIDE World Champion Viswana than Anand. As a prominent pro fessional player, Anand had just laid his hands on a copy of Year book 58 and had found our survey on the English Opening very inter esting. He quickly forgot who had written it, but he figured the tour nament in Madrid was a good oc casion to test the line and probably surprise his opponent. In fact, he was right insofar as Adla hadn't got a copy of Yearbook 58 yet! But obviously, my friend had 'some' knowledge of the line and man aged to draw.

Yearbook 60 featured a very inter esting game between I van Sokolov and Curt Hansen in a topical line of the Classical Nimzo-Indian. At home I started to analyse the game with my chess programs, trying to find an improvement for Black. After some hours I managed to do so with the new move 1 9 ... a6 ! This leads to some exciting complica tions but in my opinion Black is doing very much OK here. So far so good. As the opening ex pert for the chess programs Rebel Century and Chess Tiger I put the line in the opening books of both programs, not knowing if it would ever appear on the board. Luckily I didn't have to wait long. In the Open Dutch computer chess championship 2001 the line was played in the game COMP Diep versus COMP Rebel Century. In the end the white program man aged a draw, but I think this game is interesting for the theory of this line.

Referring to Van der Tak's survey on the drawing sacrifice 1 3 .�h6 in the Scotch Four Knights I would like to draw attention to an enter taining game played on May 26, 200 1 , during the Turkish Under 1 2 Schools Championship. I have added further information in the notes to this game. According to my analyses White retains a slight advantage after both 17 .f4 ttlg8 and 1 7 ... ttlg4.

Postscript by A. C. van der Tak: This game is indeed an interesting addition to the correspondence game Velcu-Kaunz given on page 133 in Yearbook 60. The verdict 'unclear' I attributed to 17 .f4 seems justified. In the introduction I commented that this move was 'probably aiming too high ' . In ret rospect this may be a bit too pessi mistic.

It was with vivid interest that I read the contribution by John van der Wiel on the Caro-Kann Defence: A Modern Defence Hybrid in Yearbook 59. This line also fea tures in my opening repertoire. I believe that the following two games of mine may be of some in terest to the theory of this line.

Almeida's Persistence

For many years I had the notion that after the moves l .d4 tt:lf6 2.c4 e6 3.tt:lf3 b6 4.a3 .ta6 5.�c2 �b7
15
6.t2lc3 c5 7.e4 cd4 8.t2ld4 t2lc6 9. t2lc6 �c6, the strongest move for White was 10.�f4. White aims at controlling the h2-b8 diagonal in order to impede Black's manoeu vre �d8-b8, which was said to give Black excellent prospects af ter lO.�e2. This sequence was the subject of a survey by Kick Lange weg in Yearbook 39 and just re cently by Jan van de Mortel in Yearbook 59. Still IM (and soon to be IGM) Omar Almeida insists on playing 1 O.�e2, and when he used this line no fewer than three times over the summer in Cuba, it evoked my cu riosity. Let's see how these games continued after 1 0 . . .�b8 l l .f4 (al ternative moves have much poorer results).
The first game I present, Almeida Garcia Martinez, Santa Clara 200 1 , features ll hS, a seem ingly active attempt at counterplay by Black. It lends support to his knight on g4 anticipating an even tual quick e4-e5 break. Later on, however, the h pawn became a ma jor source of worry for Black, and White gradually built up pressure in the centre and on the left flank, only to decide matters after an er roneous black central break. In the second game, Almeida Delgado, Las Tunas 200 1 , Black just played ll d6. Much to my surprise this move, which I con sider as the most natural move in the position, has never been used before. In this encounter White continued in very aggressive style and got severely punished by the ...
quiet little move 17 . . . �b7 ! In my opinion White would do better castling kingside, which gives rise to a Sicilian-type of position. Four rounds later in the Cuban Championship Irisberto Herrera tried 10 ... �c7 and met l l .t2ld5 with the remarkable novelty 1 1 . . . � d8. Reluctantly White with drew his knight, when Black re frained from taking the draw and reverted to 1 2 ... �b8. After 1 3.f4 he chose the third way (13 e5) without ever reaching equality.

Update of an Old Sacrifice
by A. C. van der Tak Sl38.5
VB 57
It is impossible to keep updating each and every survey, of course, but we cannot withhold the follow ing recent game in the 1 1 .�b5 bishop sacrifice variation of the Sveshnikov. It updates the survey covering Dolmatov's queen 'sacrifice' 151 1 6 ...V//ic7 (who is sacrificing anyway? - Black gets three pieces for the queen) in his game against Baljon, Amsterdam 1979. Shirov's novelty 16.c3 ! ? seems to be a useful move, gaining a tempo compared to the previously played 1 6.tLlc7.

It has been predicted many times, by Capablanca and others: chess is about to peter out in a drawing game. When the computers ar rived on the chess scene the same message could be heard again. Fortunately, nothing is further from the truth. In all corners of the game sparkling novelties as well as new settings to old ideas are abounding. This includes the field of opening play. Look at this game from the jubilee l Oth edition of the Monarch As surance Isle of Man International.

Black's last move has a certain logic to it. In the Benoni Black of ten goes to great length to realise this pawn thrust, so why not go for it on move 5 while the chance is there. The downside of the story is that Black tends to lag in develop ment and that the role of White's centre is increased. To the best of my knowledge Bot vinnik was the first grandmaster to play this line in a tournament game.

Then, during preparation for my last round game of the Interpolis Tournament in Tilburg 1 982 against Jan Timman, I stumbled upon a game Zaichik-Vladimirov, Krasnoiarsk 1 98 1 , which featured a slightly different gambit: 7.b4 This is a radical way for White to exploit Black's queenside weak ness and create chances along the h l -a8 diagonal.

Here Timman went into a deep think. It is clear that White has beautiful compensation for the sacrificed pawn. Black's queen side is weakened and he always has to be aware of the line of march g l-f3-d4-c6 of the king's knight. By the time this position was on the board Petrosian had already drawn his game against Smyslov and he looked at our board with great interest. He smiled skepti cally and shook his head in his typical manner. Finally he switched off his hearing aid and said aloud to Smyslov: 'Black's position is on the verge of defeat! ' This evaluation of the former World Champion is obviously too categorical but it is more than apparent that Black has a difficult defensive task ahead of him.
started to analyse its conse quences and given that I liked what I saw I decided to employ it the next day.

Black's play bears a strong resem blance to the Slav Noteboom Vari ation, where White has all the play in the centre and Black puts all his cards on two fine passed pawns. The game Kasimdzhanov-Kasparov from the recent rapid match Europe-Asia is another showcase for Black's position.

Possibly as a result of this game the line 5 ... b5 never gained popu larity in grandmaster circles, with the proverbial exception of Jan Timman. Last year he introduced a new idea as early as move 7. Al though success was on White's side Timman clearly showed that Black was doing fine after the opening and could even boast a de cisive advantage. 22

When after the game I asked Kasparov what had happened here, he told me that he had just castled a tempo, only to spot im mediately thereafter that he could have won a full rook with 10 ...!Jle5. When he looked up and saw his opponent smiling at him, he knew Kasimdzhanov had now also spotted his lucky escape.

Is it possible that in future White will have to refrain from the logi cal advance 4.d5 and revert to the more tranquil but also rather in sipid 4. l2lf3?

No doubt you may be wondering what all this 6 ... ti:Je5 business is about! Well essentially the idea is to budge White from the well beaten track of the Maroczy bind system that he is so clearly after. Yes, more typical is 6 . . . g6 7.d4 cd4 8.ti:Jd4 .ig7 9 . .ie3 (or 9.ti:Jde2) 9 . . .ti:Jf6 etc. when Black has to fig ure out some way to arrange either . . . b5 or . . . d5. Of course both would be nice but if neither is forthcom ing then Black is confined to a

relative life of passivity and hence suffering. Kasparov demonstrated an alternative method of knocking White out of his stride with 7 . . . .ig7 but it is far from clear whether 8.d5 .ic3 9.bc3 ti:Ja5 is such a good idea. The concept cer tainly muddies the water but should White wish to avoid this positional imbalance then he al ways has 8 . .ie3 instead. True, I suppose this might annoy him if he was planning for the arguably more flexible ti:Jde2 option instead but after a trade on d4 Black will still face the age old problem of breaking free of his shackles. So the question is whether or not
tt:J e5 Black can justify ignoring general opening principles by moving the same piece twice before moving others once? Well having had a bit of experience in the line I would have to say that under certain con ditions the answer is 'yes ' .
Taking a risk? After my game with John Shaw, the rather uninformative 2001 British Championship bulletin suggested that White can get an edge with 7.ti:Je5 de5 8.'iVh5 but I fail to see any convincing support for this argument.

The 'weakness' (if it can really be called that) of the doubled e-pawns is certainly counter-balanced by the availability to Black of the now half-open d-file. What's more is that the doubled pawns soon con trol useful squares that prove par ticularly useful when the remaining 24

knights start searching for outposts. I suppose one mustn 't forget that the c4-pawn is attacked after 6 ... ti:le5 and that explains the ten dency toward the quiet 7.d3. With accurate play though this doesn't appear to offer White much, al though in typical Grand Prix Attack/ Closed Sicilian style the g8-knight looks more flexible when devel oped on e7 rather than f6. The critical test must come with 7.d4(!) and certainly results vali date that. As to whether or not White is taking a gamble playing in this manner, I doubt it! Of course it is theoretically a pawn sacrifice but nobody in any of the databases I have seen to date has been so greedy as to capture on c4. Of course in encouraging 7 . . . ti:lf3 White is saddling himself with a slightly crippled kingside pawn structure. Provided he hasn't cas tled there already (i.e. highlighting the importance of 6.ti:lc3 rather than 6.0-0), the few practical en counters around would certainly suggest that this is more of a bonus than a hindrance. The half-open g-file is very useful for attacking purposes and the two f-pawns come in handy as well.

Quality not quantity! To be fair it's difficult to make too much of the statistics as the sample is really too small. However what I have observed is that nearly every game that I have come across in volved strong players. Indeed when deciding that there was very little 'rubble' to be eliminated be fore providing you with the Study Material, it was clear that some conclusions could be made in each of the variations. Indeed based on a limited number of encounters I have concluded that 7.d4( ! ) is best and aside from possibly 7 ... ti:lf3 8.gf3 e6 (clutching at straws?), frankly Black is struggling for any ideas to keep the whole line on the map.

Sicilian Defence Polugaevsky Variation 51 7.4
Contradicting the Maestro 1 .e4 cS 2/2lf3 d6 3.d4 cd4 4.lLld4 lLlf6 S.lLlc3 a6 6.�gS e6 7.f4 bS 8.es deS 9.feS Wic7 10.ef6 �es 1 1 .�e2 Wigs 1 2.'il'd3 This is the final part of my Polu gaevsky triptych. It covers 12.Wid3, which I initially believed to be the most testing and danger ous attempt to put Black aside and punish him for his ambitious sev enth move. B lack makes six pawn moves and just one knight move, which is somehow asking for trou ble. On the other hand, Black gains a lot of space on the queenside and has no weakness in his camp. The only thing he needs to do is finish his development before he is taken apart. Against 1 2.Wid3 Black can play 1 2 ... .S:a7. After 1 3.lLle4 Wie5 14.0-0 lld7 1 5.lLlf3 this transposes to the 1 2.0-0 line, which is risky but may well be playable for Black. I covered this ground in Yearbook 59 but had to address it again on the pages 9- 1 2 of this Yearbook's FORUM section. In my e-mail game against Videki I used my novelty 1 2 ... Wif6 1 3.llfl 'fie7. I discovered it entirely on my own, although much to my disap pointment I was later informed that Geller had mentioned it once. Here it is what Geller wrote back
in 1 976, in an RHM monograph: 'Here Black has the untried l 3 ... Wie7, which does deserve at tention, since the queen is no longer under fire and Black can hope to complete his development under its watchful eye.' By the way, Geller and Po lugaevsky both were on a level just below the World Champions, but as far as hating each other was con cerned, they easily reached the level of even greater players. I overestimated my novelty, think ing it completely refuted 12.'i¥d3. My prepared defence relied on
14.Wig3 Wid6, but that is not correct due to 1 5.Wif3. After 1 5 ... lla7 the sacrifice 16.lLlcb5 might not be win ning, yet this line cannot be recom mended for Black. After 14 ... lLld7 l 5.�f3 .!:l:b8 16.lLlc6 Wid6 l 7.Wig5 my second candidate move, 17 ... �e7, also failed. So I had to be content with a middle game in which I was an exchange down for the pawn. But that gave me a fully playable position. Not only play able, but very exciting as well. Black has the dark-squared bishop, which is extremely strong and all his pieces come smoothly into play. I already

drew the same conclusion from the analyses of Pioch-Van Oosterom (analysed in Yearbook 58), where in a similar position Black has to avoid a knight swap. Now I under stood that exchanging the black rook favours White, too. Generally speaking, Black should keep as many pieces on the board as possi ble in order to prevent White's heavy pieces from invading the queenside. Black has three different plans. At first I wanted to move the e and f pawns, then I preferred �d7 with a5, and finally I went for a5 with �a6. I think Black has a fine posi tion.
An Important Difference After I had finished analysing the main game, I checked other moves for this article. I saw a computer game with 1 2 . . .'il'f6 1 3 .J::t f l 'il'h4 14.g3 �e7. It took me a while to realise its importance, the queen can no longer go to g3 ! On the other hand, it gives White 1 5.�h5, because 15 ...�h4 check is no longer available. I found no advan tage for White here either. I checked 1 2 ... gf6, too. Much to my surprise, I discovered that White hasn't produced a clear refutation so far. The critical line is seen in the game Hector-Akesson, Gausdal 1 982. It is a pretty old game, and no one has repeated Akesson's play. I tried to find a way for White to obtain an advan tage, but I failed. As a matter of fact, according to my analyses, Black safely hangs on to his extra pawn. White is ahead in develop ment, but I think Black has enough time to consolidate his position. If this is true, then it is a heavy blow to 1 2.'il'd3. Then I looked at 12 ... �f6 1 3 .l:ifl 'il'g5, but I think White can gain some advantage against it. Scrutinizing the main line ( 1 3 ...'il'e5), I tried to grasp the main point of the variations. 14.l:idl J:!.a7 1 5.ltJf3 �c7 1 6.ltJe5 poses more problems than you 32
would think. However, I believe Black can equalise with careful play. 1 6.ltJg5 ( 'it is the rook that really belongs on f7' Geller) 1 6 . . .f5 17.�d4 does look danger ous for Black. In Hodgson's line 1 7 ... �e7 it looks like the best Black can get is the same ending an exchange down, but this time with no black rook on the board. I don't think Black can keep the bal ance. 1 7 ... h5 1 8J:t:f5 ef5 19.ltJd5 �aS may yield a draw by the skin of Black's teeth. I am trying to be objective, but maybe I am prejudiced to a certain extent, because I want to see the Polugaevsky Variation work. Of course, players who like the variation will try to find the answer to whatever questions I have raised in this article. 1 2. �d3 frightens me much less than before I started to work on this article. -
Contradicting the Maestro I once had a pupil, Adrien Leroy, who went on to train with Polugaevsky. Adrien told me that the great Polu once admitted that his variation had a hole and that the line was incorrect. He told Adrien he would never tell anyone what was wrong with it. Of course, I have enormous respect for Polugaevsky as a player and an analyst, but this time I would dare to contradict the maestro. I believe his variation is sound and playable. Good attacking players may prove me wrong, of course, but until I see it crushed with my own eyes I will continue to believe in 7. . . b5.

In this line, Black gives priority to the immedi ate activation of his queenside (ite6, tiJbd7, b7-b5), trying to develop a quick initiative at all cost; White, in reply, takes radical measures with 10.a4, intending to deal with the threats at once. The move sequence after 10 ... b4

l l .tiJd5 is virtually perfect for both White and Black.
Basic Themes The diagrammed position seems to have arisen for the first time at master level in 1 98 1 . Black has two weak pawns on the queenside (a6 and b4), but queen, rook and bishop won't be enough to capture either. White will need to manoeu vre with his knight; also the white pawn on a5 might eventually be come weak. The control of the dark squares by Black's bishop and the stronghold on c6 for the white pieces (especially the knight) are additional features
which frequently show up. I would like to add that the central break e5-e4, which opens up lines for Black's pieces, is often an impor tant part of Black's counter-play.
New Approach For many years Black almost ex clusively played l 5 ... ite7 (with the exception of a very few and not very encouraging attempts at 1 5 ... tiJd7 and 15 ... J:!:c8). Then last year, in Frankfurt, Kasparov un leashed a brand-new approach, 15 ... g6. His game vs. Shirov ended in a quick and obvious draw by repetition. Black's idea is to take the bishop to the nice h6-c 1 diago nal and create active counter-play as compensation for possible ma terial losses on the queenside; the inclusion of h7-h5, although los ing a tempo, will later benefit the development of a black initiative. After that initial game some big names like Gelfand and Shirov himself gave it a try. The main game of the survey features a new attempt at counter-play by Black, attempted by young IM Abreu in the Guillermo Garcia Memorial 200 1 . Although he won the game, there is a lot of room for improve ment on White's side. The notes of the winners to the games Polgar Shirov and Anand-Gelfand are very illustrative of the possibilities

has had good practical results with the unclear sacrifice 1 7 ... 'li!Ya7 (it is also possible to play 17 . . . 0-0 first) 1 8 ..i.a6 0-0.
Old Ideas As to the obvious and more fre quently played 15 ... .i.e7, the criti cal line seems to be 1 6.J:!.a4 l:!.b8 l 7.tt'lc l , with the overall statistics favouring White.
Black has tried no fewer than four different moves in this position: 17 ... .i.d8, l 7 ... e4, l 7 ... tt'ld7 and 17 ... 0-0. After 17 ... .i.d8, 18.tt'ld3 and 1 8.tt'la2 don't worry Black, while 1 8.�d1 and 1 8.0-0 are nothing special ei ther. l 8.b3, however, is a hard nut to crack. As for 1 7 ... e4, the results after l 8.tt'la2 ef3 19.gf3 have tended to favour White. 1 7 ... tt'ld7 has always transposed to lines with l 7 ... .i.d8, and White's best reply seems to be 1 8 .tt'ld3. The kind of position arising in the games Gerundino-Auger, er 1994, and Kalod-Feldman, Sydney 1999 - Black a pawn down in a middle game with opposite-coloured bishops and White's king tempo rarily in an uncomfortable position - may be critical to the assessment of this sub-variation. In spite of the negative overall sta tistics, 17 . . . 0-0 deserves a very close look, as witness the rela tively recent game Roberts Fressinet, Saint Vincent 2000. Less topical is 17. 'li!Y d3, after which many games have ended in a draw by repetition ( 1 7 . . . J:!.a8 1 8.'ifd2 .l:!.b8 1 9.'ifd3), but Black

STATISTICS
Akopian, NikitilAfytos 1992, and Borriss-Tischbierek, Budapest 1996) prove that Black loses a tempo, and White gets a sweeping attack. The rook manoeuvre 15 ... l:!.d7 ! ? 16 . .ild3 l:!.e8 was introduced in modem tournament practice by the Hungarian grandmaster Jozsef Horvath, and Zoltan Ribli has also successfully applied it several times. Black provokes White to play 1 7.e5, after which 17 ... de5 1 8 . .ile5 'ifd8 ! gives Black good play ! See the games Alexieva J.Horvath, Cappelle la Grande
1 996, Volkmann-J .Horvath, Buda pest 1997 and Gaston-Lukov, Paris 2000. There was more meat for White in the positions without 17 .e5, but White could not get an advantage in these lines either. Black had no problems after 17. 'flh3 e5 ! in T.Horvath-De Sousa, Eger 1 997, Fogarasi-Ribli, Budapest 1998 and Gaston-Antal, Paris 2000. The moves 1 7.J:l:e3 ! ?, as in Vukovic P.Varga, Neum 2000, and 17.t/Jd1 ! ?, as in Bratovic-G .Pinter, Balatonlelle 200 1 , are interesting and more dangerous for Black. Finally, the move 16 . .ilf3 ! ?, tried in the game Lanka-Ribli, Austria 1 999, which restricts Black's manoeuvering space on the kingside, deserves further analysis.

Sicilian Defence Rossolimo Variation 51 31.4
The Danger of Drifting 1 .e4 c5 2.t2:lf3 t2lc6 3.�b5 e6 4.�c6 bc6 There is something moralistic about doubling your opponent's c-pawns, as if you suddenly make him guilty of harbouring a (nearly) strategically lost position. This may be a hangover from Nimzo witsch's pedagogy, but there is also something comforting in hav ing clear strategic aims. Indeed, White's intentions are quite straightforward: provoke . . . d5 and play e5 followed by c4 to fix the c pawns, or provoke . . . e5 and then attack with c3 and d4 or f4, or wait for . . .f5/f6 and try to exploit the kingside weaknesses.
Black's Task Black's task, on the other hand, is by no means trivial. He needs to move his centre pawns to develop but ... d5 (Baklan-Othman, Duis burg 1992; Hamdouchi-Canderas, Mancha 2000) , ...e5 (Anand-Chris tiansen, Monaco 1993; Bogdan Papp, Harkany 2000) and .. .f5/f6 (Zakharov-Sherbakov, St Peters burg 1999; Zhang Pengxiang Kang, Shenyang 1999) all have their downsides, as these games re veal. However, many strong black players have shown the promise in Black's position and David-Kram nik, France 1993, Bisguier-Gulko, 50
Los Angeles 1991 and Adams Krasenkow, Istanbul Olympiad 2000 are notable examples. It seems that Black's success depends on finding a role for his light squared bishop, and he sometimes has to be willing to sacrifice a pawn to do so (Uusi-Gulko, Soviet Union 1977; Bologan-Shabalov, Foxwoods 2000).
Which moves and when? 1 ) h4. I don't see how this helps White in general, and often serves merely to further weaken the light squares, but it is often played by strong players and Bezold-Volk-
STATISTICS
mann, Austrian Staatsliga 1999, is an example of its sting. 2) d4. It seems odd to undouble Black's pawns and wake up the bishops so d4 is rarely the most promising approach, but it can be quite effective, as shown in Mestel-Quinn, Eastbourne 1 973 and Timman-Visier Segovia, Las Palmas 1 977. 3) The tLlg5 manoeuvre. This is White's most dangerous idea at the moment (Bologan-Sveshnikov, Tallinn 2000; Hamdouchi-Mila dinovic, Saint Vincent 2000). It is particularly threatening when Black's knight is already commit-

ted to g6 (Psakhis-Nielsen, Gaus dal 1994 is a drastic example). However, when the knight is still on e7 Black has more options, and in the main game Rowson-Ansell, Scarborough 200 1 , B lack gives a vigorous demonstration of Black's prospects in this line. 4) Move order issues. If White begins with 5.b3 Black will often seek to blunt the diagonal at some point with .. .f6. In these cases White does well to exchange on f6 rather than allowing Black the pleasure of the spectacular ... tt:lh8 ! manoeuvre as in Bisguier-Gulko, Los Angeles 199 1 . However, in general b3 seems a little tame and there is a danger of the bishop banging its head against a black e5 pawn. 5.d3 suggests itself, but then Black should consider an early . . . e5 with 5 ... d6 or 5 .. .'f/c7 because the idea of c3 and d4 is less threatening. 5.0-0 is most flexible and probably best. Then if 5 ... tt:le7 6.d3 ! ? begs an important question, because 6 ... tt:lg6 7.tt:lg5 gives White some initiative, and yet there is no other consistent sixth move. This sug gests that Black might try some thing more flexible on move five like 5 .. .'f/c7 ! ? when ... tt:le7-g6 is still possible, but ... e5 and . . . tt:lf6 is a plausible alternative. Then 6.d3 e5 ! ? looks fine for Black and 6.b3, although perfectly playable, doesn't help prepare the funny business with tt:lg5.
Conclusion This line is highly complex. It is easier for White to play, but players like Shabalov, Gulko and Krasen kow often make it look like White is struggling to equalise. I suspect the biggest danger for both sides is that it's the sort of position where it's very easy to drift, and underesti mate the importance of each move. In any case, many black players steer clear of 3 ...e6 because 4..tc6 seems so annoying, but I hope this survey shows that this annoyance can be overcome, and that White also has things to worry about.

Sicilian Defence The Anti-Sveshnikov 51 32.16
The Choice of the Young Generation? 1 .e4 c5 V2.:Jf3 ti:Jc6 3.ti:Jc3 e5 4.�c4 d6 5.d3 �e7 6.0-0 In Yearbook 37 Leon Pliester's survey about the Anti-Sveshnikov line was a rather general review dedicated to several kind of posi tions arising after l .e4 c5 2.ti:Jf3 ti:Jc6 3.ti:Jc3 e5. The move 3 .ti:Jc3 became quite fashionable, and several important games have been played since then. In the Milan Vidmar Memorial young Andrey Volokitin won a beautiful game after 3.ti:Jc3 e5 4.�c4 �e7 5 .d3 d6 6.0-0, which is the starting point of the present survey. The move 6.ti:Jd2 is a different story and needs a separate investigation.
Different Move Orders First I would like to provide some explanations about the move or der. 3.ti:Jc3 is mainly played by those who are ready to play open lines with 3.d4, but want to avoid the Sveshnikov Sicilian (or 3.d4 cd4 4.ti:Jd4 e5). In case of 3 ... d6, 3 ... g6 or 3 ... e6 they continue with 4.d4, thus getting Sicilian main lines anyway. As only few players with Black are ready to play 3 . ... ti:Jf6 (still hoping for a Sveshnikov after 4.d4), because of 4.�b5 ! (a line which favours White), they must play 3 . . . e5 in order to avoid other lines of the open Sicilian. 56
Main Games In our first featured game after 3.ti:Jc3 e5 4.�c4 �e7 5.d3 d6 6.0-0 Zdenko Kozul played a move which has a bad reputation (6...�e6) and wasn't able to come up with any improvements. Better is 6 ...ti:Jf6 7.ti:Jg5 (White's best attempt) 7 ... 0-0 8.f4 ef4 9.�f4 h6 1 0.ti:Jf3 �e6 (also playable is 10 ... ti:Ja5, see David-Grivas, Athens 1 997). Now l l .ti:Jd5 appears to be best, as hap pened in the second featured game. However, in that game from Astana 200 1 , Morozevich played the less popular 1 3 . . . ti:Jb4, after which young Darmen Sadvakasov seized the initiative on the king-

side with the creative 1 8.g4 ! . Later he collapsed under Morozevich's tough resistance. The move 1 3 ... ti:Je5 gives Black good chances to equalize, see the Study Material.
Conclusion Of course the main attraction of 3.ti:Jc3 is that it is less theoretical than the Sveshnikov Sicilian. The move 3 ... e5 leads to quiet positions, usually with a slight edge for White, but perfectly playable for Black as well. The positions arising then have a hidden tactical potential, though, and require a sharp eye on the players' part.
Survey SI 32. 16 Maybe that is the real reason why young players like Sadvakasov and Volokitin prefer to play it this way?

This is cer tainly the case. He also rightly points out that move order is im portant in modem chess. And it is extremely important, especially in complicated openings like the Sveshnikov Sicilian. There are many subtleties after 1 2 .c3 and some of them are very well ex plained in the above-mentioned
STATISTICS
survey. I would like to add the fol lowing: 1 2.c3 is not only 'a useful move', but also 'a tricky move ' . Because according to practical re sults one can deduct that Black simply has too many good options. Well, first of all White has many possibilities as well, with a lot of transpositions to other lines. The second important aspect is that there are not many high-level games played with this. For in stance, the evaluation of the line 12 . . ..td5 1 3.ed5 l/Je7 14.l/Jb5 is still based on the old ( 1 979) game Rigo-Van der Wiel, where B lack was doing fine. Things certainly don't run so smoothly for Black in
other lines, and White has many ways to improve.
Anand's Novelty The present survey deals with the position arising after 12 ... .tg7 1 3.�h5 0-0 14.0-0 f4. This posi tion may arise after different move orders and was quite popular for a while in the '70s, but the general conclusion was that Black can solve his opening problems with out major difficulties. Early this year Anand suddenly took up this almost forgotten line against Leko in Wijk aan Zee. After a short but very sharp battle the game ended in a draw in a complicated posi tion. Instead of playing on the queenside with either of the two traditional continuations ( 1 5.l/Jc2 or 15 . .l:!.fd l ), Anand chose 1 5 .J:l.ad l and after 15 ... \ith8 his novelty 1 6.g3 is a logical and di rect way to shake up Black's pawn formation. It is quite likely that Anand found an improvement on his game versus Leko, so he re peated the line against Topalov in Monaco a few months later. But Topalov was the first player to im prove and Black won a nice game. Still, Anand didn't give up, and in Merida against Hemandez he fi nally won in a complicated battle (improving on his game versus To palov). 61
Conclusion The line will continue to develop, but the first tentative conclusions can be drawn. The position is very complicated and may become ex tremely sharp, with a lot of hang ing pieces. In order to create counterplay B lack must play ac tively, and often he should be ready to sac a pawn. It is clear that Anand's novelty sets new prob lems for Black, but also that Black's position contains good re sources. Practice will provide a more accurate assessment.

Sicilian Defence Another Anti-Sveshnikov 51 41.3
Making Black Work 1 .e4 c5 VL\f3 e6 3.tt:Jc3 tt:Jc6 4. ..te2 During the second Individual European Championship in Mace donia, while preparing for my game against Georgy Timo shenko, I was not very eager to go for the main lines of the Sveshnikov Variation, which Ti moshenko is always playing. I started looking for something to avoid theoretical lines and found the interesting move 4 ...te2, al most entirely forgotten now (al though played for the first time in 1 883), with the ECO providing
STATISTICS
only one short line with it. But the variation is not without venom Black has to be careful. I liked the move a lot and decided to give it a try. The idea of the move is quite sim ple. White is going to castle and only afterwards play d2-d4, avoid ing the Sveshnikov, but ready to play the Scheveningen or the Paulsen Variation. Black has a lot of different moves here, but none of them as natural and good as 4 ... 4Jf6. After 5.0-0 the position appears, which we will concen trate this survey on. Here Black has several different
moves at his disposal. 5 ... ..te7, 5 ... �c7, 5 ...d6 and 5 ... a6 can all be met by 6.d4 cd4 7.4Jd4, transpos ing to the Scheveningen or Paulsen. That's why Black has to play some thing else to prevent White from playing d2-d4 on the next move. Exactly two moves serve this pur pose: 5 ... d5 and 5 ... '1Wb6.
Variation A After 5 ... d5 6.ed5 again Black has two options. 6 . . . ed5 7 .d4 leads the game to a type of position nor mally seen in the French Defence, but not in the games of the Sicilian player. White has the upper hand here. After 6 . . . 4Jd5 White has a pleasant choice between 7 . ..tb5 and 7.d4. Other moves are not dangerous for Black and don't promise White any advantage. Both 7 . ..tb5 and 7.d4 are very annoying for Black and it is a matter of personal taste which move to play. I would ad vise people to look at the games of Yury Balashov and Viktor Kuprei chik, which show exactly how White should handle the position after 7.d4. White's initiative is strong and it is not easy for Black to neutralize it.
Variation B In my opinion, 5 . . . �b6 is the strongest move in the position and 68
Survey S/ 4 1. 3
the only move Timoshenko could play to avoid entering unknown territory and getting himself into trouble (like after 5 . . . d5). Al though 5 . . . 'ii'b6 looks very natu ral, preventing White from playing d2-d4, it has been played only three times in a total of 1 1 3 games played with this line. After 5 . . . �b6 Black is going to finish his development by :ile7, 0-0, solving all his problems. Mean while White has to find a way to complete his development. Two possible ideas come to mind: b2b3, :ilb2 etc. and a2-a3, l:!.al -b l , b2-b4. Now let u s see how they have fared in tournament practice. 6.a3 took place in the game Nikolenko-Kharlov, Moscow 1998. After 6 . . .a6 (6 ... :ile7 is possible as well) 7Jlb l �c7 (7 ... :ile7 de serves serious attention) 8.d4 cd4 9.ti:ld4 tt'ld4 10.�d4 :ilc5 l l ."fid3 b5 a Paulsen type ofposition arises with equal chances to both. 6.h3 took place in the featured game of this survey, Tiviakov Timoshenko, Ohrid 200 1 . With White threatening to play 7 .e5, Black has to go 6 . . .d6, closing the diagonal a3-f8, easily enabling the plan with a3 and b4. After 7.a3 :ile7 8.l:!.bl a6 9.b4 White suc ceeded in executing his plan, but unfortunately it was not enough to get the better chances. Taking into account the fact that the game was played in the penultimate round of the European Championship, with none of us wishing to take risks, a draw was agreed on move 1 4 in a position in which both sides have possibilities to continue play. The most promising plan for White was chosen in the game Stefansson-Arnason, Grundarfjor dur 1 986. After 6.lle l (threatening with e5) 6 . . . d6 7.b3 (7.a3 and fur ther as in the game Tiviakov Timoshenko, is possible as well) 7 . . .:ile7 8.:ilb2 0-0 9.:ilfl :ild7 IO.tt'lb5 ( IO.tt'la4 and l l .c4 de serves serious attention) 1 0. . . tt'lg4 l l .c4 tt'lge5 1 2.tt'lc3 an unclear po sition has arisen.
Conclusion The line with 4.:ile2 is very inter esting and undeservedly forgotten. Although leaving the beaten track usually doesn't promise an open ing advantage, sometimes there are circumstances when it is better to surprise one's opponent, avoid ing the well-studied theoretical lines. 4.:ile2 can be one of such lines, not completely without venom, making Black work hard at the board as early as move 4. The strongest way for Black to meet 4.:ile2 is 4 ... tt'lf6 5.0-0 �b6, but even here the last word has still not been said.

Follow Your Heart 1 .e4 c5 2.lt:lf3 e6 3.d4 cd4 4.lt:Jd4 a6 5.�d3 lt:Je7 In the main line of the Kan Varia tion, Black has several reasonable set-ups at his disposal. The 'classical' moves 5 ... lt:Jc6, 5 . . . �c5 and 5 . . . lt:lf6 are all more or less OK. However, 5 . . .g6 and our pres ent subject 5 ... lt:le7 also merit at tention. What all these lines have in common is that they produce typically rich Sicilian positions, while remammg fairly non theoretical (by which I mean that it is not necessary to know long forced lines by heart).
drawback of playing lt:lec6 is that the b8-knight remains in his sta ble. Yet this knight may easily find a comfortable spot on d7.
..
The 5 . . . lt:Je7 line becomes a more subtle weapon when combined with the ideas of the 5 . . . g6 system (where Black will often play lt:Jg8-e7). Thus, there often are not unfavourable transpositional pos sibilities (I have indicated some of them in the Study Material). This
The Main Idea The main idea of 5 . . . lt:Je7 is clearly that it prepares lt:lc6 (after 5 . . . lt:lc6 the immediate 6.lt:lc6 forces Black to recapture with a pawn, when White is thought to be slightly better in both cases). Note that I did not specify which knight is going to c6 - this is the main conundrum in this line! When Black puts the b8-knight on c6 it seems as if he is taking better care of his development. How ever, this is not entirely clear, since the e7-knight will often have to move in order to complete his kingside development. What's more, the knight often ends up on the less desirable g6 square. The 72

Combining 5 . lt:Je7 with 5.. g6 ideas
STATISTICS
sheds a different light on this varia tion altogether and makes it more difficult to combat for White. It is possible to anticipate the com ing of a knight to c6 with 6.c3 or even 6.lt:lb3 (as Leko once did). One can do this with 6.f4, too when the idea is to withdraw the d4-knight to f3, thus preserving an attacking piece. It is important not to play 6 . . . lt:lbc6 in reply to 6.f4, as White is comfortably better in the French-like position after 7.lt:Jf3 d5 8.e5. However, 6 . . . lt:lec6 is a good enough answer, see Matu-
Survey SI 42. 1 lovic-Miladinovic, Arandjelovac 1 993, and the main game Smeets Bosch, Dieren 200 1 . After 6.c4 tt'lbc6 ( 6... tt:Jec6 ! ?) 7.tt'lb3 it is good to remember that a g6 set-up is often quite playable (Damaso-Efimov, Pula 1 997). The same goes for 6.tt'lc3 tt'lbc6 (again 6 ...tt:Jec6 is not bad either) 7 .tt:Jb3 g6( !). For the kind of disaster that is possible after 7 ... tt'lg6, see Tal Suetin, Tbilisi 1 969/70.

Study Material 5... tt:Je7
Which knight should go to c6? White's main line, though, clearly is 6.0-0, when Black faces the choice of which knight to move to c6. After either knight move, White then has three options: to exchange with 7.tt'lc6, to preserve his central knight with 7.c3, and to withdraw it with 7.tt'lb3. Which is better, 6 ... tt:Jec6 or 6 . . . tt:Jbc6? Alas, there is no objective answer to this question. One of the inven tors of the whole line, Kochiev, has always preferred 6 . . . tt:Jec6. But a modern interpreter like Bis choff has always opted for 6 ... tt:Jbc6. My advice would be to study the illustrative games to get a feel for these positions and then to follow your heart. In general, it should be possible for White to preserve some opening advan tage. However, this is not some thing to worry the experienced Sicilian player unduly.

Sicilian Defence Alapin Variation 51 47.3
Who Was Wolfgang Heidenfeld? 1 .e4 c5 2.c3 tt:lf6 3.e5 tt:ld5 4.tt:lf3 tt:lc6 5.tt:la3 Biography Wolfgang Heidenfeld was born in Berlin, Germany, the 29th of May of 1 9 1 1 . He emigrated to South Africa in the mid- 1930's, although most likely he was forced to for be ing Jew. He had a variety ofjobs as crossword puzzle designer, writer, journalist and even door-to-door salesman. He was always against Apartheid. A good poker player, he was also an interesting chess player, eight times winner of the South African championship. In 1 956 he visited Dublin, he got
STATISTICS
married and moved there. Later on he spent a few years in Frankfurt. Curiously enough in 1959 he was both Irish and South African champion while domiciled in Ger many ! He settled back in Dublin in 1963 and became Irish Champion six times. In 1968 his son Mark was born, who is currently an in ternational master and was the 2000 Irish Champion, but he learned chess from his mother! According to an Internet page dedicated to him, his arrogance was characteristic. From this in tense, fascinating and a bit eccen tric biography, a free-thinker was given to chess, who created the
system which is analysed in this survey: 5.tt:la3.
Some ideas White's difficulties to get an ad vantage in the main line (5.d4 cd4 6 . .iilc4 tt:lb6) put the repertoire of many Alapin experts under fire. However, lost between the count less games stored in modem data bases, some with the astonishing 5.tt:la3 can be found. Nowadays, the variation is being gradually rescued, specially thanks to Vla dimir Baklan's efforts, who re vived the line with a couple of nice ideas accompanied with vic tories. Black is faced with unex pected problems, and this might be the main virtue of the Heiden feld System. Several set-ups seem to be playable and this makes the choice even more difficult. How ever, in each one of them, White should be able to complicate the game and reach a promising mid dle game.
Alternative defensive set-ups To oppose White's set-up there are several responses that can be sum marize in four categories. All they lead to an unbalanced piece distri bution, so some structure is indis pensable in order to understand the varied consequences that arise from each one of them. 77
A) The strange moves 5 .. .t2Jb6 and 5 ... a6 appear under this heading. The game Vysochin Sislian, Norderstedt 2000, shows all the power that Alapin supporters 'worship' : a queenside pawn majority, a strong knight on e5 and excellent piece coordina tion either for the middle game or the ending. Although things are not so easy if Black reverts to sounder resources, both moves lack a sophisticated touch. After all, why not attack White's center immediately? B) The modest 5 . . . e6, simply developing the kingside, suffered a setback in the game Baklan Anapolsky, Alushta 1 999, where the weakness created by the early b5 proved fatal in the resulting middle game. This excellent game culminated in an accurate and beautiful kingside attack. It re mains to be seen how White can improve on the game Vysochin Gritsak, Polanica Zdroj 200 1 , where the quick gain of the bishop pair did not assure any advantage, but without a doubt new discover ies can be expected in this line. C) The logical 5 ... d6, attacking White's center immediately, has been tested on several occasions. Our hero, the intrepid Heidenfeld, faced it several times. In his game against Penrose, Madrid 1 960, he tried to convert the classic small ad vantage of the queenside pawn ma jority under the well-known Alapinian adage: 'all or draw ' , but he was unsuccessful. Although very playable, this line doesn't seem attractive for Black. One of the main games, Dolzhikova Gaponenko, emphasizes this evaluation. D) Finally we arrive to what possibly will become the main an swer against White's system: 5 ...g6. The first main game Gla vina-Sion, where development was based on 6.g3, leaves a clear im pression: White has to be very ac curate, otherwise Black's central influence will be oppressive. This 78
was confirmed in the game Heidenfeld-Larsen, Havana Olym piad 1 966, and even more clearly in Bisguier-Fischer, Saltsjobaden Inter zonal 1962, where the great Bobby found the very precise 7 . ./ijc7 which leaves White with serious problems to defend the e5 pawn. The ball is now in White's court in this line. 6.'iVb3, played with assi duity by Baklan, seems an interest ing attempt. In any case, it demonstrates that there is a lot to discover. Baklan-Aagaard, Gronin gen 1 998, and Suer-Johannsson, Lugano Olympiad 1 968, are two good examples of the type of play that White seeks.
Conclusion Summarising, the line surveyed tries to open new possibilities in the almost exhausted and suffering Alapin. All this was brought to us by an illustrious player, who may get a deserved place in the vault of the variations 'with a name' .

Up to the dia grammed position, Black has played quite logically. He has de veloped all his minor pieces and put a rook on a semi-open file in Philidorian fashion. The question is what he should do next. There are three options: 1 ) 1 1 ...'ifc8 12 . ..t>h2 lle5, intend ing a direct hit at the White King. 2) 1 1 . ..ct:ld4 1 2.�d4 and now ei ther 12 ... c5 13.�e3 �c6 threaten-

the whole line is complicated and perfectly suitable to play for a win as Black.
Option 2
In my opinion, voluntarily ex changing a couple of knights with Option 1 1 1 ...ct:ld4 is a bit of a concession. After 1 1 ...'ifc8 1 2 . ..t>h2 J:!.e5 there After 1 2.�d4 c5 1 3.�e3 �c6 : {'11 'is a branch.

Nevertheless, only 1 2.a4 can bring Black into real danger. Now, with the white queenside a bit weakened, Black starts a ma noeuvre with his queen's knight. This gives the pawn on c7 the op portunity to come forward. A) 1 2 . . . ct:le5 ? ! has never at tracted a large following. Hardly surprising, because the knight gets in the way of both rook and bishop. Besides, at some stage White will gain a tempo with f4. B) 1 2 ... ct:la5 ! ? I think this move is underestimated by theory. The knight is not hindering its own pieces now and there is always the

threat it will come to c4. Maybe White can wrest an edge somewhere in Khenkin-Tkachiev, French Team Championship 1 998 Pichler-Tischbierek, ( 1 3.�d3).

Is White not better after 17.�f6?

INTRODUCTION: Willy Hendriks MAIN ANALYSIS: Wllly Hendrlks STUDY MATERIAL: Hendriks
Pirc Defence Byrne Variation PU 10.10
Problems in the Main Line 1 .e4 d6 2.d4 tt:lf6 3.4Jc3 g6 4.�g5 �g7 s:�Yd2 c6 6.f4 In his survey in Yearbook 48 Alex ander Beliavsky concludes that "the variation 4. �g5 is only at the beginning of its evolution." Since then, this active way of meeting the Pirc has only grown in popular ity. Beliavsky concentrated on the variations with h6, g5 followed by tt:lh5 to eliminate the white bishop, a principal way to deal with �g5. Here I will look at what is mostly considered as the main line: the possibilities arising after 5.'ii'd2 c6.
STATISTICS
After this move White has several options. With 6.�h6 he can enter a line that belongs to the 4.�e3complex. At present Black seems to be holding in this line. With 6.0-0-0 or 6.f3 White can choose for a set-up that is also similar to lines in the �e3-complex. The move I will be looking at is 6. f4 and this gives White's game its own character.
Black's options
After 6.f4 Black has different ways of playing against White's impres sive centre. Very logical is 6 ... b5, threatening pawn e4, and after
7 .�d3 following up with �g4 and 'ii'b6, putting pressure on d4. White's bishop on g5 is very ac tively placed but not doing much for the defense of d4. After 6 . . . b5 7.�d3 0-0 8.4Jf3 �g4 White has the choice: A) 9.0-0-0 leads to very sharp play. The game Tiviakov Delemarre gives a good idea of the dangers of White's attack. Recom mended to look at is also the game Peng Xiaomin-Gallagher where the black player in a very creative way launches a dangerous counter-attack. B) 9.e5 seems, after some ini tial successes, not to be very threatening. The game Wiersma Nijboer shows an interesting ap proach for Black. C) 9.f5, very direct, also seems not to be a big threat to Black. D) 9.0-0 is the most modest move but seems to pose the biggest problems to Black. After 9 ... 'ii'b 6 1 0.4:le2 tt:lbd7 l l .>t>hl ! Black doesn't seem to achieve equality with l l . . .d5. This variation will be analysed in the main games.
Looking for other ways
Although the set-up with jt_g4 and 'ii'b6 is recommended in several books on the Pirc Black has at this moment some problems getting a good game. So he is well advised 88
Survey PU 10. 10 to look for possible improvements. One idea is to continue with tt.:lb8d7-b6 after b5. The disadvantage of this is that it gives White a little bit a free hand to start his attacking plans, aiming at e5 or f5. A quick black disaster is seen in the game Minasian-Van Wely. Another idea is to play 6 ... 0-0 in stead of 6 ... b5. In answer to 7.�d3 Black can play 7 ... 1/lk'b6 and after 7.tt.:lf3 the direct 7 ... d5 is an extra possibility. Of course White has other moves like 7.0-0-0 or 7.e5. Other ways of deviating include an early b4 and an early �a5 and Mikhail Gurevich' experimental move tt.:lh5.
specialist in the �g5-variation). I did not manage to solve the open ing problems and had to give a pawn to keep playing. Very untypically, Tiviakov had difficul ties converting his big advantage and in time-pressure even went into a lost endgame. Two rounds later Jan Werle sur prised me by choosing the same variation. With 9 ... tt.:lbd7 I devi ated and after the strange-looking IO.tt.:le2 I almost immediately played IO . . . d5?, getting the same miserable position as against Tiviakov. This time I wasn't lucky: the young Dutch talent finished me off without difficulties.
Important ideas
The �g5-variation is a very inter esting line in which play can de velop in a lot of different ways. White has the choice of castling long or short. In the center he can choose between advancing with e5 (making the bishop on g5 work) or f5. Black has different ways of attack ing White's centre: e5, c5 or d5. Es pecially the last move, d5, is seen often in this line. After the logical e5 Black plays tt.:le4, attacking 'llk'd2 and �g5. After a subsequent tt.:lxe4 dxe4 the white knight on f3 lacks the g5 square to go to. That's why White often plays �xf6 first in re action to d5. After Black takes back with �xf6, e5 gives White some advantage. So Black may play exf6. Then it's often crucial if White is able to continue with f5 preventing a black f5 which lives up the bishop on g7.

Playing one-self
Every chess player has one game (ore maybe a few) he theoretically would play against himself. Play ing against myself probably the Pirc-�g5 would come on the board (unless I would chose to sur prise myself!). In this year's Open in Dieren I was, as Black, con fronted with my own plans.

INTRODUCTION: Adrian Skelton STUDY MATERIAL: Skelton
French Defence Two Knights Variation FR 4.5
The Day of the Jackal 1 .e4 e6 V2:lc3 d5 3.ti:lf3 ti:lf6 4.e5 ti:lfd7 5.d4 c5 6.�g5 Adrian Skelton of Ireland recently put together a booklet called The Jackal Attack, which covers the French Two Knights Variation. Mr Skelton contacted the Yearbook editors with a view of having (part of) the material published in the Yearbook, and, as the subject (and the quality of the analysis) ap peared very interesting, we are happy to present to our readers 6 ...'li'b6, one of the most significant variations of the Jackal Attack.
Introduction
One of the main problems White encounters when playing against the French Defence is simply that he always faces an experienced opponent. For whereas White may encounter this particular opening, say, once in every dozen games or even more rarely, Black's experi ence of the opening is bound to be more extensive. Somewhere be tween a quarter and a third of Black's games are likely to feature the defence he specializes in. Whatever theoretical advantage White can claim by virtue of inher ent weaknesses in the French De fence must therefore realistically be set off against the fact that the game will largely follow an 94
agenda of Black's choosing. One way around this problem is to find a 'firewall' system which can be relied upon to muddle one's op ponent's theoretical 'book' . Such a system must of course be basically sound. At the same time it must not be innocuous. But if White can in deed find such an opening and use it regularly, then to some extent he has turned the tables on Black. This was my thinking during the '80s, when I began using the Two Knights Variation against the French (i.e. l .e4 e6 2.tt::lc3 d5 3.ti:lf3 ti:lf6 4.e5 ti:lfd7 5.d4 c5 6.dc5 tt::l c6 7.�f4) and because it was a sideline, I soon found that my specific knowledge of this sys tem, together with its infrequent use, definitely tilted the balance very much in my favour. Still, in spite of my favourable re sults something aroused my curi osity while at the same time puzzling me. You see, the opening moves quoted above, while not forced on Black, do represent the most likely variation that both players will pursue in the opening. What aroused my curiosity more and more as I continued to play 7 .�f4 game after game was simply: 'Why not 6.�g5 (?)' Thus far I had been in the habit of occasionally scribbling down my
own analysis of possible variations in the normal Two Knights French, a good way ofleaming how to han dle any opening. But now I began considering 6.�g5. So what is so good about 6.�g5 compared to 7.�f4 in the normal line? After all, at least 7 .�f4 helps control the e5 square, thematically as important in this branch of the French as in any other. The answer lies in the greater tactical possibili ties for White after 6.�g5. After Black's previous move he appears to have what looks for all the world like a very typical posi tion. Yet after 6.�g5 Black can easily find himself immersed in complex tactical evaluations he could well do without within only a few short moves. A quick flick through the relevant section should bear this out. Whereas the normal Two Knights French often muddles Black's 'book' preparation, the 6.�g5 line threatens to throw the book straight out the window and leave Black playing to White's agenda. ( ... )
Jackal with 6 ...'*'b6
In quite a few cases Black will re act to the 'hit' on his queen by moving it to b6. The temptation to 'kill two birds with one stone' is powerful - Black removes his
Survey FR 4.5 queen from danger and also counter-attacks an undefended pawn. However, the move 'iYb6, which enjoys a roguish but semi respectable reputation in many other opening systems, has al ready blotted its copybook in the normal Two Knights French (i.e with White playing �f4 instead of the Jackal's �g5). White's anti dote to 6 'iYb6 is 7.dc5!?, forcing Black into another potentially tricky choice. ...

Line A - 7 ... �c5 7...�c5 8.'iYd2!
It seems that White has overlooked something even more important than the double attack. Although few players are likely to 'jump in with both feet' and recklessly snatch the b-pawn at once, the pre paratory

looks a more attractive proposi tion. However, things are not so simple, as we shall see. On 8 ... 'iYb4 White might try 9.0-0-0. For example 9 . . . 0-0 1 0.a3 'i!Ya5 1 L !lf6 ! and Black is in trou ble since l l ...gf6? appears to lose. Another possibility is 8 ...

As it turns out, White cannot make anything of the exposed position of the Black queen and attacking it merely drives it to better squares. If White instead retreats his bishop to f4, he has wasted a tempo and to little purpose, positionally. Conse quently the bishop swap is indi cated, and although this may improve the position of Black's queen, the burden of proof rests with Black as to how he can cover the black squares after the pawn break ... f6, ef6.
This is the critical test, since Black's queenside pieces are much better placed to cope with the kind of counterplay generated by White in earlier examples, when Black has dared to grab the pawn.

In this way White attempts to ex

While this move takes the pressure off the White e-pawn it neverthe less has merits: The black knight is on an active square, which not only prevents White's tt:la4 attacking the black queen, but both controls e4 and makes �d3 less attractive to White. The presence of the knight on c5 also indirectly weak ens White's b2 pawn further. Nor should Black be unduly worried by the pin �e3 since at worst he can simply retreat to d8.
8.tt:ld4 tt:lc6
Once again it's risky to play 8 ... 'ifb2 due to 9.tt:ldb5, when even after 9 ... tt:le4 Black is in extreme danger: 1 0.tt:lc7 Wd7 l l .tt:l7d5 tt:lg5 1 2.tt:lf6 Wc6 1 3.�b5.

Black is two pawns up, but as usual White is better developed, has more space and is trying to desta bilise the position. Here are some possibilities:

1 6.�d2 'i!Vd8 1 8.�c3 tt:le6

In the case of bishop moves White can play 1 9.tt:ld6 opening up the a l - h 8 diagonal and/or the ' e ' file. If 1 8 . . . tt:le4 White also gains the ad vantage with 19.'iYa4.
1 9.�a4 �d7 20.J:!.fd1
Although two pawns up, Black's position is clearly unenviable. Naturally, over the last few moves either side could have steered a dif ferent course and the variation merely indicates a sample line.
Survey FR 4.5
Summary
Many variations stemming from 6 ...'ii'b6 offer White good attack ing chances and lead to interesting and often complex positions, as shown above. As is frequently the case, White's threats tend to multiply when Black captures the 'poisoned' pawn. The fact is that players of all standards will be tempted to take on b2. Motivated by consistency, ignorance, self-belief, even fear (of missing the obvious), they will take the pawn. Some players may even base the capture on analysis yes, seriously. The absence of an outright refuta tion of this capture is almost irrele vant. Familiarity with the resulting positions is the key issue in practi cal play.

French Defence Winawer Variation FR 11.1
French for Theoryphobes 1 .e4 e 6 2.d4 d 5 3.tt:lc3 iLb4 4.e5 c5 5.a3 iLc3 6.bc3 �as 7.iLd2 'iVa4 The paucity oftheory on 6 . . . 'iV a5 ! ? in the French Winawer is one of its main attractions. Black seeks a strategically complex Winawer position, while avoiding the highly theoretical and tactical main lines. This line is now quite trendy and has been successfully ventured by GMs Nikolic, Psakhis, Rustemov amongst others. The basic idea is to lodge the queen on a4 and ex change light-squared bishops with ... b6 and . . . iLa6 but Black is also willing to close the centre with
STATISTICS

. . .c4 if necessary. In such cases it is useful that the knight is still on g8, because it makes the crucial .. .f6 break more effective. This line has scored rather well over the last few years, but I have the impression that white players are beginning to target its drawbacks.
Following Fischer
8.'fig4 was Fischer's choice and looked like a refutation until re cently. Black players decided that however ugly ... g6 may be in gen eral, there is enough happening in the rest of the position to justify weakening the kingside in this way. Indeed, David-Psakhis, Bad
Wiessee 1 999, was very comfort able for Black and it's not totally clear where White went wrong. 8.tt:lf3 looks fairly innocuous, but it's a clever choice if you think your opponent is not so familiar with Winawer lines in general. The consistent 8 ... b6 is punished by 9.c4! as in Lalic-Pert, Scarbor ough 200 1 , while 8 . . . tt:le7, al though perfectly playable, is an off-shoot of the Winawer main lines. Given the effectiveness of 8.tt:lf3 b6 9.c4! , 8.c4 ! ? is worth a look. Even if it falls short, it would have excellent surprise value .
Psakhis Points
For most players, a post-mortem with Psakhis is worth about 1 0 elo points; he has so many pearls of wisdom. For instance, after 'out -frenching' me a few years ago, he told me that: 'Closing the position with ... c4 is almost always a mis take in the Winawer' . Crucially, he added that White needed to know where to put his pieces to exploit this, which is no trivial task. In deed, Psakhis has won many games after closing the centre in this way, although usually against signifi cantly weaker opposition. How ever, I like S.'�'b l ! forcing ... c4 because as long as White plays pur posefully and is aware of the strate gic dangers, these closed positions
Survey FR 1 1 . 1 should favour him. Moreover, if Black opens the position with. . .f6, White's unopposed dark-squared bishop comes to life. After 8 . . .c4 9.t2le2 ! ? Black has a choice of strat egy. If 9 .. .f6 I think White is better in King-Williams, England Team Championship 2000, and Rowson Pert, Scarborough 200 1 , although this may be a question of taste. In the main game Rowson-Motwani, Aberdeen 200 1 , Black preferred to keep the position closed and was probably quite comfortable, al though only after an imperceptible error on my part, and Nigel Short thinks Black's position is simply inferior unless he plays .. .f6.
Conclusion
So, to sum up, there is not yet a clear refutation of this fashionable line, but it has lost much of its surprise value and it seems that its honeymoon period has passed.

Caro-Kann Defence Classical Variation CK 12.11
No Rush to Castle 1 .e4 c6 2.d4 d S 3/2Jc3 de4 4.t2Je4 ilfS 5.l2Jg3 ilg6 6.h4 h6 7.l2Jf3 l2Jd7 8.h5 ilh7 9.ild3 ild3 1 0.'ifd3 'V/ic7 1 1 .ild2 e6 1 2.0-0-0 l2Jgf6 1 3.l2Je4 ile7 The move 13 ... ile7 (or 14 ... ile7 if l l . . .'ifa5 1 2.ild2 was interposed) is less popular than the main con tinuation 1 3 . . . 0-0-0, but it has an important advantage - its flexibil ity. Black delays his decision about where to castle, which makes him more flexible in his re sponse to White's plans. Generally speaking, castling kingside is rather risky and needs to be pre pared, whereas castling queenside leads to very solid, albeit slightly passive positions.
The Premiere
14.l2Jf6 was first tried in the game Karpov-Seirawan, Linares 1 983. Neither 14 ... gf6 nor 1 4 ... l2Jf6 can be recommended for Black, see the relevant games. The best con tinuation, 14 ... ilf6 1 5.'V/ie4 0-0-0 1 6.ilf4 'ifaS 1 7.\t>b 1 , leads to an important position. Seirawan's move 17 ... .!:!.he8 has already been played three times, and we can conclude that Black is very close to equality. 1 8.ilg3 doesn't prom ise White much, and Hracek's at tempt 1 8.g4! is more interesting in the Bundesliga game Hracek1 02
Khenkin, at least, Black had to fight hard for the draw. In the fea tured game Lutz-Dautov, also played in the German Bundesliga 2000/0 1 , but four rounds earlier, I found an interesting alternative to 1 7 ... J:!.he8, viz. 1 7 ... 'V!id5 ! ? 1 8.'ife2 'V!ibS ! . White not only finds it hard to prevent the queen swap, but his hope for an endgame advantage has also evaporated.
Preparation
1 4.g3 is best met by 14 ... J:!.d8 !, see Wehrneier-Epishin, Willingen 1 999. And the preparatory . . . .!ladS seems to be necessary if Black wants to castle kingside.
STATISTICS
The Main Line
The prophylactic move 14.\t>b l is the main variation as regards the number of times it has been played. 14 . . . 0-0 without prepara tion is again very risky for Black, as White can immediately launch an attack with 1 5.g4 ! ? (Bologan Khenkin, France 200 1 ). The continuations 14 . . . l2Je4 15.'ife4 l2Jf6 16. 'VII e2 and 1 4 ... c5 are not convincing. In the latter case I greatly like Uwe Kaminski's approach against Bohnisch, Zittau 1 989. On the other hand, the prophylaxis 14 ... .!:i:d8 is again an option, as in Korbut-Kachiani, Warsaw 200 1 . But the commonest
Survey CK 12. 1 1 move is 1 4. . . 0-0-0. After the planned 1 5 .g3 Black has a pleasant choice between 1 5 .. .t2'le4 1 6.'i!'e4 J:the8 (Balashov-Hiibner, Wijk aan Zee 1 982) and the energetic 1 5 ... c5 1 6 ..lil.f4 'i!'c6 (Bauer Steinmacher, German Bundesliga 11 1 995), in both cases with approximate equality.

Alekhine Defence Four Pawns Attack AL 8.10
A Future For The Alekhine? 1 .e4 ti:Jf6 2.e5 ti:Jd5 3.d4 d6 4.c4 ti:Jb6 5.f4 deS 6.fe5 ti:Jc6 7.�e3 �f5 8.ti:Jc3 e6 9.ti:Jf3 �g4 1 o.�e2 �f3 1 1 .gf3 �h4 1 2.�f2 �f4 13.c5 The Alekhine Defence is not as popular as it used to be. According to the current theory, the position after l .e4 ti:Jf6 2.e5 ti:Jd5 3.d4 d6 4.ti:Jf3 is difficult to play for Black: both 4 ... g6 (Alburt) 5.�c4 and 4 ...�g4 5.�e2 as 4 ... de5 5.ti:Je5 g6 are said to be slightly better for White. Variations such as 4 ... de5 5.ti:Je5 ti:Jd7 (Larsen) 6.ti:Jf7 ! ? and
STATISTICS
4 . . . ti:Jc6 5 .c4 ti:Jb6 6.e6 ! ? are probably a bit too wild for most players. Facing De Firmian (who is not un familiar with the opening) earlier this year in Malmo, Timman (who also has played the line in the past) was confronted with the Alekhine Defence. Probably to avoid prepa ration, Timman decided to revert to the old Four Pawns Attack: 4.c4 ti:Jb6 5.f4. Timman relates in New In Chess Magazine 2001/5 that he was relieved when, after 5 . . .de5 6.fe5 �f5 7.ti:Jc3 e6 8.ti:Jf3 ti:Jc6 9.�e3, De Firmian didn't play one
of the sharper continuations, 9 ... �e7 or 9 ...�d7, but went for 9 . . . �g4 instead.
The Critical Line
The critical position in this line arises on the 13th move, after 1 0.�e2 �f3 1 1 .gf3 'ifh4 1 2.�f2 �f4. Timman played 1 3 .c5 ! - a 1 940 invention by the American Dr. Joseph Platz - and com mented: 'An important strategic feature of the text is that the pres sure against d4 is relieved and that Black cannot exploit his posses sion of square d5' . De Firmian reacted with 1 3 ... ti:Jd5, when White got a space advantage and the bishop pair after 14.ti:Jd5 ed5 1 5 .'ifd2. Black withdrew into passivity, trying to build a fortress. However, a mistake on the 24th move led to a virtually lost posi tion. This survey covers the position af ter Timman's 1 3 .c5 ! , examining both 1 3 . . . ti:Jd5 and 1 3 . . . ti:Jd7. It is clear from the Study Material that Black is living on the edge.
An Afterthought
Lastly, note the blitz game Tim man-Piket, Dordrecht 2000, in which Black (instead of 1 2 .. .'iff4) opted for 1 2 .. .'ifh3, a novelty as far as I can tell. Does this move have any future? 1 07

6.�c6) 6 ... tLlb5 7.a4. After 7 ... d6 8.e6 fe6 9.ab5 ttJe7 l O.ttJc3 ttJf5, his opponent Emelin deviated from the game Nunn-Romanishin, Mexico 1977 (which is mentioned in all the theoretical textbooks) with l l .ttJd4 tLld4. Black did al right in this game, but Ivanov might have missed a promising continuation on move 13. New de velopments in this line are in the air. It is nice to observe the possi ble revival of an old variation the roots of which are to be found in the 1 9th century. All important games, old and new, are listed in the Study Material. One should take special notice of
Halprin-Pillsbury, Munich 1900, a very elegant game and relevant to this day. However, the whole line is rather drawish as well, especially if Black refrains from the ambitious 7 ... d6 and plays 7 ... ttJbd4 instead, returning the knight in a safe and simple way.

However, in recent years none of them have played it very often. I think 9.t2:lbd2 causes the main problem for Black. There have been several tries to find a so lution for Black, but none of them really solved Black's problem. Even Anand, arguably one of the best opening connoisseurs twice ended up in a lost position.
STATISTICS
A Fresh Attempt
In Yearbook 59 I analysed a sharp variation in the t2:lbd2 Open Ruy Lopez, but that attempt did not yield much for Black either. In the past I have tried several variations myself. Many of them looked promising for a while, but all failed in the end. After finishing my pre vious article, I decided to try and find something fresh. I was not really hopeful, but I nevertheless succeeded. My attention was drawn to the game Almasi Yusupov, Ubeda 1 997, and I did not find it convincing at all. I checked other variations against the line 9 ...t2Jc5 10.c3 ..tg4, with
... t2:le6 and ... ..tc5 to come. In this survey I would like to bring it to your attention. ..tg4 exploits the circumstance that the knight is blocking the d-file and the pawn on d5 is temporarily not under at tack. In most lines Black can play without going into long forced lines, but sometimes he has that option as well. In the above mentioned game I think 1 5 . . . d4 or 15 . . . ..tc2 gives Black a playable game. According to my database Yusupov has not repeated the Open Variation ever since, which is extraordinary. Ivan Sokolov tried to improve earlier on with ag gressive play, but Michael Adarns (Sarajevo 2000) outplayed him nicely.
The Alternative Way
White can also develop the d2 knight via b3. Yusupov had an other game, this time against Lutz. Because of some silly mistake I made, I originally thought that game was played later than the one against Almasi, but it was in fact played some months earlier, in Round 3 of the German Bundes liga 1 996/97. So I tried hard to find an improvement, although the game ended nearly by force in a drawish pawn down rook ending. Other moves, like 28 ... c5 seem to hold as well. I even got into some 115
very interesting pawn endings. One must invest an awful lot of time to make sure about the final result- I think Black can even hold the pawn down pawn ending, how ever, my analyses may need even more checking. Forgive me, but the Yearbook is about openings, not endgames. If an active player writes about an opening, there is a fair chance that he will hide something, as he can not let his next opponent know what he is in for. If a trainer makes an article, he can have problems with judging slightly worse posi tions, as he lacks sufficient prac tice in facing them over the board. On 13.a4 I think 1 3 ... b4 should be played; Amador Rodriguez won a nice game against 13 ... tLle7.
Alternatives On Move 11
Instead of l l . .,tc2 White can inter pose l l .h3, but after �hS White should return to the main moves. l l. .!:!.el keeps the pressure on dS, my plan was 1 1 .. .d4 which to my knowledge has never been played. It leads to a sharp position typical of the Open Variation. Risky for both sides but according to my analyses Black holds on.

I hope this article at least contributes to the theory of the Open Variation of the Ruy Lopez.
l l ...t2ld3 can be tried too. On 1 2.lle3, 12 ... t2lcl was played in the junior game Bratovic-Smeets, Halkidiki 200 1 . I also checked the surprising and untested 1 2 ... t2lc5, thinking of an early d4 and insist ing on ... t2le6 and ... �c5. I did not find anything wrong with it. Yona Kosashvili beat Haba (Haifa 1989) in a nice game featuring l l ...t2lb3, but after 1 2.t2lb3 �e7 1 3 .'iVd3, 13 ... �f3 ! ? might be playable.

Conclusion
All in all, it seems Black can play this line. Several times in this opening my ideas did not work in the end, but I hope it's different this time. If I am mistaken, please forgive me and remember that even Anand came up with a losing line. I do not think he would have risked a line knowing it had a hole in it against Peter Svidler, but I am absolutely sure he would not have done that against Kasparov in a world championship match.
Afterthought
You may wonder why this article is called The Last of the Mohicans. Here is the explanation. Nowadays a player either makes very good results or has to play so much that he has no time to obtain a big encyclopedic knowledge of chess. In the old socialist system in Hungary, once a player got to a decent IM level, he could make a nice living out of chess despite having only modest results. That resulted in a situation in which some players did not bother to make good practical results, and could still work with chess. I could name a whole series of players: Haag, Dely, Petran, Hazai. Recently I realised I am the last of those players. Our chess careers were a waste to a certain extent, still maybe we added a bit to chess.

Philidor Defence Antoshin Variation KP 4.4
Nisipeanu's Novelty 1 .e4 e5 2.l2:lf3 d6 3.d4 ed4 4.tt:ld4 tt:lf6 5.tt:lc3 Jl.e7 6.Jl.f4 0-0 7.�d2 Imagination or Precision?
I think a certain distance in time is required to judge the value of someone's novelty. In my opinion it is unfortunate that awards for novelties are given in the very next issue of Chess Informant. What are the criteria for 'best novelty' ? How important the variation is, or whether it introduces a completely new handling, or a refutation of an important line. Imagination can be
STATISTICS
appreciated as well. However, one important factor should not be left out: how does it stand the test of time? Sometimes novelties get a prize and in half a year's time they turn out to be completely unplayable. The Romanian grandmaster Liviu Dieter Nisipeanu came up with a most imaginative novelty in the Antoshin Variation of the Philidor (5 ... Jl.e7). Of course these things are rather subjective, but I was deeply impressed by his stunning idea 6.Jl.f4 0-0 7.'ii'd2 d5 8.tt:ldb5 c6 ! ? ! . He won a very nice game with it against Mikhail Brodsky at
the Victor Ciocaltea Memorial, Bucharest 200 1 . I ran into this system i n a weekend tournament in Apeldoom. My pre pared line was 8.ed5 but I started to like 8.tt:ldb5 during the game, and after checking its variations I de cided to give it a try. I missed 1 0... g5 completely, but still I was hopeful. My optimism was based on 1 5.0-0-0 followed by l 7.l::t:d4. When I realised that I had missed a cute back rank mating combina tion, I tried another move, but could do nothing else than con gratulate my opponent with a well played game. In the post mortem he told me it was all theory. He seemed to know only this line of the whole variation. He was right, it was enough ...
Nisipeanu's Novelty
Afterwards I checked this line and analysed the game for you. Al though Nisipeanu's sacrificial idea is deep, according to my analyses 1 5 .'ii' d2 ! gives White a clear ad vantage. True, White has to walk in the firing line of several pieces and has to deal with some discov ered checks from the black rook, but White seems to have sufficient material to survive and keep the better position. If Black wants to play the line in future, another im pressive idea is required. 1 22
Survey KP 4.4 In reply to 8.ed5, 8 . . .�b4 seems to be the weaker continuation, given that Kotronias gained the upper hand against Gelashvili, Korinthos 1997. However 8 ... <1Jd5 holds. Black only has to follow Kuzmin's play against De la Riva (Ubeda 1 998), and if he wants, he can also take on g2 on several occasions. Of course this entails a certain amount of risk, but I see no break through for White in that line. So the critical test to 7 ... d5 is 8.tLldb5. I paid a heavy price for entering such a sharp line without updated knowledge. I think the evaluation of the older line 8 ... �b4 9.0-0-0 c6 IO.t2lc7 <1Je4 depends on my nov elty 1 1 .�d4 which has not been played yet. In the line 1 1 . . .�c3 it might make the difference.
Alternatives To 7 . . .d5
It seems logical for Black to act be fore White has put his king in rela tive safety by castling queenside. 7 ... <1Jc6 and 7 ... a6 seem too slow. In all the examples provided in the Study Material White obtained a better position by simple means. Neither is the line 7 ... c6 very at tractive. After 8.0-0-0 b5 9.f3 b4 the most natural retreat is 1 0.<1Jce2. Peter Svidler did not take the rook against V. Ivanov, St Petersburg 1 999, although I have not been able to find proper com pensation for Black's huge mate rial deficit. But Svidler won with natural moves. Amador Rodriguez is a very fine theoretician and an accomplished trainer - I noticed the positive ef fect he has had on Leko's chess. I liked his game against Stuart Con quest, Cienfuegos 1 996, in which he gained a winning advantage. However, his British opponent es caped by a mixture of luck and imagination. In published annota tions to the game Amador recom mended 10.<1Jb 1 and opined that 1 2 . . . d5 would lead to a slight ad vantage for Black. I agree that this is the critical position of this sub line but I prefer White, because
White's activity on the kingside comes on much faster than Black's on the opposite wing. Young Peter Leko beat Gerardo Barbero in the Hungarian team championship of 1 994 in the line with 8 ... d5. He cunningly ex ploited the back rank weakness of his experienced opponent, who sadly passed away recently.
More On Leko
I presume our dear readers will not object to me dwelling some more on the nature of my work with Pe ter, which in three years' time cata pulted Peter from the level of making 0 points in a Category Ill tournament to making a GM norm and getting to play Anatoly Kar pov in a closed tournament. Apart from 6 hours training for 1 80-200 days a year, I prepared openings for him when he played tourna ments. Unlike other juniors Peter hardly lost games in the openings, and his openings continued to serve him well even in strong tour naments. In the Barbero game our preparation did work out really well.
Conclusion
It looks as if the 6.�f4 line intend ing to castle queenside is very dan gerous for Black, and it certainly requires precise theoretical knowl edge. Both Brodsky and I simply ended up losing right out of the opening. 1 5.�d2 looks like Black's main challenger. Al though I think it represents a hole in Nisipeanu's line, I pay tribute to his great idea.

Queen's Gambit Declined Blackburne Variation Q0 1.5
The New Trend: 6 1 .d4 d 5 2.c4 e6 3.tt:lc3 .1i.e7 4.tt:lf3 tt:lf6 5 ..1i.f4 0-0 6.e3 tt:lbd7 7.c5 Introduction
The popularity that the 5 ..1i.f4 sys tem in the QGD has enjoyed for years is still rising. The opulence of its contents and the variety of its options have induced many players to include this system into their repertoires. White has the option to either play a quiet and controlled game striving for a small advantage without risk or to give the game an extremely sharp course in variations in which he castles to the queenside. One sel dom finds a variation in any open ing with such diametrically opposite and extreme options. The fact alone that these options exist commands respect and which option will be chosen natu rally depends on the individual player, and is caused by various factors. The analyses of several variations extend well into the endgame as can be seen in Pelletier's superbly written survey in Yearbook 58. In the search for new paths, Black players have recently more and more often developed the knight to d7 (6 ... tt:lbd7), instead of the standard 6 ...c5 and ... tt:lc6. The idea is not new but it has not
...
been sufficiently investigated. The different position of the knight gives the variation an independent character, and more recent exam ples from practice show this alter native to be quite playable for Black. Of course, it cannot be claimed that the knight stands bet ter on d7 than on c6, but it cannot be disputed that for Black this is a solid option if he wants to avoid the much-trodden theoretical paths. After 6 .. .tt.ibd7 the reaction . . . c5 still remains Black's main idea, but the more modest option ... c6, after which there appears a kind of a Carlsbad structure, also has its
lbbd7
adherents. However, this survey does not deal with the positions arising after ... c5. Postponing this move gives White the chance to block the position by playing 7.c5 himself, and that is the subject matter of our discussion. At an early stage of the game White relinquishes the tension in the center and claims space on the queenside. Obviously it is more consistent to play this move after Black has played . . . a6. Neverthe less, with the present structure the plan of advancing queenside pawns supported by the dark squared bishop has its sound posi tional basis as well. The idea has

been known ever since the last century (Steinitz-Chigorin, Nurn berg 1 896), and I believe that it is this option for White (7 .cS) that was the main reason why the con tinuation 6 ... l/Jbd7 was for a long time overshadowed by the popu lar 6 . . . cS. Black players wandered for many years trying to find the right plan. The fashion of the 60ies was active play on the kingside as the obvious reaction to 7.cS. But, this straightforward plan, which neglects the development of the queenside, proved wrong. Several illustrative examples can be found at the beginning of the Study Material. The modern way to play against 7.cS is based on a different con cept. Black in the early phase of the game provokes and under mines White's advanced pawn mass with ... b6 and . . . aS with a clear and most important strategic idea in mind, viz. to exchange his light-squared bishop along the a6-fl diagonal. There are two dif ferent versions of this plan.
The system with 7
...
c6
In the variation 7 . . .c6 Black ig nores the white dark-squared bishop and at once carries out the plan ... b6, aS, �a6. The exchange of light-squared bishops is inevita ble. There are finesses regarding the moment of the exchange. Black should not hurry and, in the main line 8.�d3 b6 9.b4 aS l O.a3 �a6 1 1 .0-0, he should better play a couple of useful moves like �c8 and h6 for example, and wait for White's �c2 (or �e2) before he takes on d3. The best move order can be seen in Van Wely Kasimdzhanov, Vlissingen 200 1 . The positions that arise here are of a positional nature. White has a spatial advantage and his atten tion is directed towards Black's only permanent weakness - the c6 pawn. Playing for that pawn is the motif in all types of possible end games. In this variation these can often be knight endgames be1 30
cause Black has at its disposal the manoeuvre . . . �d8-c7 with which he gets rid of the unpleasant pres sure of White 's dark-squared bishop. White needs to be patient and he should be prepared for a long battle. The attempt to refute Black's strategy with an early b4-bS has not given satisfactory results in practice. Black has tac tical defensive resources at his disposal where he sacrifices ma terial for excellent compensation, as in the example I.Sokolov Spassky, Malmo 1 998. The black position is a tough nut that cannot easily be cracked with b4-bS, as can also be seen in the game Dreev-Malakhov, New Delhi, 2000. Although White carried out this breakthrough with the ideal arrangement of his pieces, Black resisted the pressure. But the mo tif b4-bS is always present before Black himself reacts with . . . bS, so he should be careful. The basic position for the con tinuation 7 . . . c6 arises after 8.�d3 b6 9.b4 aS l O.a3 �a6.
It would be consistent for Black to play ... b6-bS only when he really has to because of White's threat b4-bS. White often voluntarily abandons the a-file and by threat ening the breakthrough along the b and c-files, forces Black to close the position with ... b6-bS. In this type of the position matters can take an unfavourable turn for White if he underestimates Black's minimal tactical possibili ties which consist of the coordi nated exploitation of the a-file and e4 square. The transformation of the position after the possible ex change on e4 gives Black a power ful stronghold on dS. The consequences of such a transfor mation can be seen in the featured game Dautov-Kasimdzhanov, Es sen 200 I . This motif also comes to the fore in the important game Galego-Vaganian, Ohrid 200 1 , where Black won the theoretical duel with the promising novelty 1 4 . . . l:!.a7. Generally speaking, in the varia tion 7 ... c6 there is a balanced rela tionship between the arrangement of pieces and pawns, where even a small imprecision can easily un balance the position with serious consequences.
The system with 7 l/Jh5 ...
Similar strategic observations can also be made with regard to the variation 7 ... l/JhS. Sooner or later the a-file is opened, and which side will profit from that depends on various factors. In the case of the general exchange of the rooks along the a-file Black should make sure to prevent White in time from endangering the vul nerable c6 pawn. A careless treat ment is seen in Topalov-Karpov, Monaco rapid 2000. Black should not hurry to commit himself with his b-pawn because ... b6-bS gives White the possibility of the ma noeuvre l/Jd2-b3-aS, while the po tential bcS releases the b4 square.
Here Black at once eliminates the strong white dark-squared bishop, which in the main line enables him an active game, i.e. the exchange of the rooks along the open b-file.
Survey QO 1.5 Unlike the variation 7 ... c6, where we see knight endgames, here there often arises the type of the endgame tt:ltt:l versus tt:l�. White retains a space advantage, but with precise play Black is able to main tain the balance. It is advisable to study the finesses of this endgame type through two examples from Vaganian's practice: Schandorff Vaganian, Germany Bundesliga 2000/01 and Bareev-Vaganian, New Delhi 2000. It should be noted that in this second example Black did not apply the usual plan of opening the b-file but instead borrowed the plan from the system 7 . . . c6, which quickly yielded him equality. Finally, the question should be asked which of these two plans is the more reliable for Black. It is difficult to give a precise answer. The greatest expert on this varia tion, Rafael Vaganian, plays both of them, which could indicated that the choice is a matter oftaste. The continuation 6 . . . tt:lbd7 ap pears more or less often in the practice of top QGD experts like Kramnik, Karpov, Vaganian and others. This is a clear indication that one can expect an increase in popularity of this continuation in the future. Who should and who can success fully play this variation? Defi nitely not those striving for attacking chess and those whose endgame technique leaves some thing to be desired.

Queen's Gambit Declined Exchange Variation QO 11.4

In the main position, after 6.cd5 ed5 7.e3 .ie7 8 ..id3 0-0 9."�Vc2 J:!.e8 10.0-0 lt:lf8 Black usually tries to exchange some pieces with the manoeuvre ... lt:le4, or sometimes ... lt:lg4 or ... lt:l6d7. As Matthew Sadler explains in his remarkable
STATISTICS

prize-winning book Queen 's Gam bit Declined: 'White often plays .ig5xf6 just to prevent the knight from coming to e4. Although this gives up the bishop pair, it drags the bishop from the f8-a3 diagonal where it belongs (on f6, it merely bites against the granite on d4).'
Black's Intentions
It's now clear what Black has in mind with the idea of 7 ... .id6, followed by ... lt:lf8 and ... lt:lg6. He would like to trade White's dark squared bishop, while at the same time keeping its counterpart on the best possible square - from d6 he's supporting active kingside play
and controls the b4 and c5 squares. This idea is not very well known. Suffice it to say that neither Sadler nor Lalic even mention it in their latest QGD-monographs. The Yugo slav Encyclopaedia does give some material which traditionally ends with � or oo. Its main protagonist was Ljubomir Ljubojevic, who took it up in the mid-seventies. After 7 ... .id6 8 . .id3 lt:lf8 White faces a choice between two princi pal options: 9.'il'c2 and 9.lt:le5 ! Other moves, such as 9.0-0 and 9. iY a4 have also been seen.
Variation A
Although it is not easy to get an ad vantage for White, 9. 'iVc2 is by far the most popular choice here. This is partly due to various transpositions, in which '/Wc2 has been played prior to move 9. After 9 . . . lt:lg6 (9 ... lt:le6 10 ..ih4 g6 is also worthy of attention, see Sokolov-Milov, Amsterdam 2000) White is at a crossroads: is it going to be 10.0-0-0 or 1 0.lt:lh4 ( 1 0.h4 and 10.h3 are just inferior versions of 1 0.0-0-0) A 1 ) 1 0.0-0-0 leads to unclear complications after 10 ...h6 1 l ..ig6 ( l l ..if6 'il'f6 1 2.e4 lt:lf4 1 3.�b1 is interesting, Miladinovic-Cvetkovic, Kavala 1 997) 1 1 ... hg5 1 2.lt:lg5 fg6 1 3.'/Wg6 �d7 14.lt:lf7 'il'e8 1 5 .lt:lh8 '/Wh8. Playing such types of posi tions is not everybody's cup of tea.
Survey QO 1 1. 4 A2) 10.tbh4 leads to some ad vantage after 10 ... 0-0 1 1 .0-0-0 h6 1 2.tbg6 fg6 1 3.�h4 g5 1 4.�g3 �g3 15.hg3 tbg4 16 . .!:i:d2, Bagi rov-Taimanov, Balm 1 977, and Stohl-Cvetkovic, Vmjacka Banja 1 989, when White will open the position with e4. However, Black has a strong alternative in 10 ... �e7 ! 1 1 .tbf5 �f5 1 2.�f5 0-0 ( 1 2 ... tbd7 13.�e7 tbe7 was Razuvaev-Smagin, Tashkent 1 984) 1 3.0-0 tbe8 1 4.�e7 W/e7 1 5.tbe2 tbd6 with good play in Hertneck Pinter, Germany 1 997.
Variation B
Now we finally come to the main subject of this survey. 9.tbe5 ! is a real hammer blow to Black's posi tion. When Black first faced it, he went pawn hunting with 9 ... 'iVb6. It proved to be an unfortunate choice, but it enriched the antholo gies of chess miniatures with Yusupov-Nogueiras, Montpellier Candidates 1 985 and Hjartarson Ljubojevic, Tilburg 1 989. By the way, ECO gives 9 ... 'iVb6 10.0-0 W/b2 l l. .l:i:c 1 tbg6 1 2.f4 0-0 1 3 J:Ic2 (Timman-Ljubojevic, 5th match game, Hilversum 1 987) and now 1 3 ... W/a3 as , concluding that 1 4.�f6 gf6 1 5.tbg4 �g4 1 6.W/g4 �b4 is :f. It doesn't take inhuman efforts to realise that Black can resign after 17.f5 �c3 1 8.fg6 fg6 1 9.�g6. Black does have an alternative in 9 ... W/e7, the choice of Ljubojevic in his game against Portisch, Nik sic 1978. Black's position proved resilient in the complications after 10.f4 h6 1 1 .�h4 g5 1 2.fg5. Dizdar-Groszpeter, Austrian Staats liga 1 999, is another example where a draw was reached. But the situation becomes less rosy after the superior 1 2.�g3 ! After 1 2 ...gf4 1 3.ef4 tbg4 we can continue with 1 4.0-0 (as in the main game) or play 1 4.W/e2 ! , sim ple but strong. The point is that 14 ... llg8 1 5.0-0 f6 1 6.�h4 ! com pletely paralyses Black's position. During the game I overlooked this possibility.
In our main game Laurent Fressi net played 1 4 ... �e5, a bad novelty. He didn't take enough time to real ise (it was a rapid game) that there is a huge difference between our game and Relange-Prie, Clichy 1 995. 14 ... tbe3 seems better, since it is not clear why Prie didn't ex change queens in reply to 1 5.Wih5. However, I believe that in the case of 14 ... tbe3 White strikes at the other side of the board with 1 5.W/a4 ! , which yields him excel lent chances. At the end of this survey you will find some games with 9 ... tbg6. Blagojevic-Cvetkovic, Yugoslavia 1 999, shows us what Black should be aiming for. With the novelty 1 4 ... tbe4! Cvetkovic improved on an earlier game of his against Chemin, Belgrade 1988. I feel White should have played more aggressively against Black's cramped position. The immediate 1 2.h4 is probably over-optimistic, but 1 2.0-0-0, followed by that same idea of h4, looks dangerous for Black.

However an encounter between two of the world's top players still managed to find new territory as early as move seven ! The Slow Slav doesn't have a reputation for being particularly critical. Black can play 4 ... �f5 which leads to a solid game and excellent chances of equalizing. The downside is that after an early

�d3 by White and the inevitable exchange of bishops, Black has problems to create serious win ning chances. A critical line after 4 ... �f5 is examined on page 148. Black can otherwise try 4 . . .g6 or 4 . . . �g4 but these rarely lead to lively play either. In the featured game Morozevich instead chose the flexible 4 . . . a6 when 5.�d3 �g4 6.�b3 �f3 ! ? led t o an unbalanced struggle. An and recaptured on f3 whereupon Morozevich improvised with 7 ... 'D.a7 (rather than 7 ...�c7). These last few moves raise a
number of points, for instance what happens after the critical 7.�b7 (which was rejected by An and in favour of 7.gf3)?. Analysis suggests that White wins the exchange at the cost of having his queen permanently locked out of play, or allows a draw by repeti tion (see notes to Hebden-Prie). Another question is why choose the ugly move 7 .. JJ.a7? (when 7 . . . �c7 is more 'natural'). Moro zevich then shows in the game continuation that the rest of Black's army can then develop 'normally' and in the fullness of time this rook comes back into play with a timely . . . b5 and ... .S:c7. He also demonstrates with his play and notes that Black obtains a sat isfactory game. On move six, White has two less aggressive strategies, both of which limit Black's chances for counterplay: the pseudo-exchange with 6.cd5 (safe, but nothing spe cial) and the tension-maintaining 6.tt'lbd2. The latter of these seems to cause the most problems as in Kramnik-Kasparov (OK, it's only a blitz game but the opening is in structive) and Tregubov-De Vreugt amongst others. Essen tially, Black can complete his de velopment but White retains a small initiative out of the opening (I wonder; with the knight on d2, is
Survey SL 1.4 the move ... a6 just a loss of time?!). This looks to be White's best bet at the moment; it's hardly scintillating stuff but a nagging edge is better than nothing. If White cannot find anything con crete in this line then he could con sider 5 .t2:lc3 but after 5 ... b5 we return to well-established theory where Black is holding his own.

Slav Defence The Slow Slav SL 1.7
Meeting The Aggressive 6.tbh4 1 .d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.ttlf3 tt:lf6 4.e3 .tf5 5.tt:lc3 e6 6.tt:lh4 A remarkable new trend in the Slav Defence is the rising popular ity of the line 3.ttlf3 tt:lf6 4.e3 which used to be considered to tally harmless after 4 . . . .tf5 . Although this is undoubtedly still the most critical move, several high-level games have shown that White's chances should not be un derestimated if he continues in the most aggressive way, which is 5 .tt:lc3 e6 6.tt:lh4.

not quite clear which is best, al though 6 ...�e4 is certainly more popular and has also scored better) White continues 7.�b3 (or 8."ifb3) when Black faces an im portant choice. The endgame which may arise from 7 (or 8) ... "ifb6 turns out to contain more venom than anyone ever thought, now that the likes of Kramnik have taken up the White side of it. The main alternative 7(8) . . .'i/c7 leads to more complicated play, often producing the typically Slav situation where Black is a little cramped for space, but he has a solid position with counterplay looming in the background.
What is really very attractive for White in this line is that there are few forcing lines, which after a while, tend to kill any theoretical debate. Instead there seems to be ample scope for a slowly develop ing middle game which makes high demands not just on your opening preparation, but even more on your practical skills, which is what chess is all about.

A Kingside Attack 1 .d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.t2lf3 t2Jf6 4.t2lc3 dc4 5.a4 t2Ja6 6.e4 Jl.g4 7.Jl.c4 Jl.f3 8.gf3 e6 The variation with 5 ... t2Ja6 is an in teresting and quite popular alterna tive to the main line 5 ... Jl.f5. After White's best move, 6.e4, Black plays 6... Jl.g4, when he has two possibilities: to keep the light squared bishop by postponing ... Jl.f3, which often entails playing Jl.h5 after h2-h3, or quickly taking on f3, thus breaking White's pawn structure. The second plan looks like the most principled approach (although more risky, of course) and in this survey the position after 7.Jl.c4 Jl.f3 8.gf3 e6 is examined.
Quick Kingside Castling
In the pawn structure arising after this White's most promising plan is to castle kingside and use the g file by playing 'it>hl and J::l.g l . Black is quite solid against a direct attack, though, and he usually cas tles kingside too, organizing coun terplay in the centre afterwards. It is quite amazing that the most popular move is 9.Jl.e3, and not 9.0-0. e3 is the best place for White's bishop, of course, but on the other hand I don't really see why White should start with this move. 9.0-0 is quite logical White executes the plan with 'it>hl
and l:i:gl first. Later on, in some lines the bishop might go to h6 di rectly. Anyway, if White plays Jl.e3 soon, this aspect might make no difference. In the featured game against Alexey Shirov from the German Bundesliga 200 1 , I tried to postpone the move Jl.e3 as long as I could, intending to play it only when there was a direct threat against pawn d4. My main task was to organize a quick attack on the kingside and I believe this is what White should do in such posi tions - play actively by trying to use his bishop pair and the g-file, see Mikhalevski-Rabinovich, Dieren 1 999, or Izeta-Stefanova, Las Pal-
mas 1996. But as I said earlier, Black has a solid position and White can easily end up with a bad pawn structure and no attack. I refer to Cebalo-Lugovoi, Budapest 1 996 and Omearat-Rausis, Cairo 200 1 . White's alternative, to start active play at once with 9.l:i:g 1 (or Jl.e3 and J::!.g l with the king on e l ), is probably too optimistic and rather dubious. The move 9.Jl.a6 is better, but I believe that Black has enough counter-chances after that. So the plan involving kingside castling (with or without Jl.e3), followed by 'it>hl and .!lgl is White's most promising approach and it might cause Black serious problems.

Tackling the Stonewall 1 .d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.lbc3 e6 4.e3 f5 5.g4 In the twilight zone between the Semi-Slav and the Dutch Defence there is the line l .d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.t2lc3 e6 4.e3 (anti-Noteboom) 4...f5 or l .d4 f5 2.c4 e6 3.t2lc3 d5 4.e3 c6. The NIC-classification has it as SL 6. 1 0 while ECO cate gorises it under A84. White has many replies available, in particular 5 . .td3 and 5.f4. How ever, Black's Stonewall formation
STATISTICS
can also be tackled with the ag gressive 5.g4 ! ? It is the type of move that many players behind the black pieces are not comfortable with. Whenever he takes on g4 or allows White to capture on f5, Black's pawn formation will be come compromised to some ex tent.
Pedigree
The theory books have Portisch Ki:iberl, Hungarian Championship 1 963, as the oldest example, but
our database produced a game ten years older: Abrahams-Rhodes, Hastings 1 953. Browsing in the ever valuable old card index files at the Max Euwe Centre in Am sterdam I was able to cut back the date of origin with another 1 2 years when I came across Bergsma-Koomen, Baarn 1 94 1 ! In the featured game Stohl Goloschapov, Hungary 200 1 , Black opts for 5 ... tt.Jf6. Until move 1 3 a German correspondence game from six years back was followed. Did the players know during the game? This is quite possible, since it was given in my SOS column in New In Chess Magazine 200013. White deviates with 1 3.t2la4? ! , but that was not a wise thing to do. Black gets a small advantage but when he squanders that on move 22 truce is quickly signed. For the time being, after 5 ... t2lf6 6.gf5 ef5, 7.'i¥b3 appears to be White's best bet and 7 ... dc4 Black's best reply. Otherwise White captures on d5 himself and leaves Black stuck with a weakling on d5. We refer to the game Yakovich-Bellon and the games quoted. That's it for 5 ... tt.Jf6. Of course the alternative 5 .. .fg4 is also exam ined, leaving the indelible impres sion that Black is certainly in for a difficult ride after 5.g4. 1 61
The Third Way
Perhaps the third way offers some relief. 5 ... t2lh6 ! ? was played in the premiere in 1 94 1 and to my knowl edge was repeated only once since. In Volkov-Landa, Perm 1 997, White goes full blast with 6.g5 'ifg5 7.e4, but doesn't achieve much when all is said and done. My prediction is that we haven't seen the last of this line !

Tarrasch Defence Rubinstein Variation TD 4.16
The Right Rook 1 .d4 d 5 2.c4 e 6 3.t2:lc3 c 5 4.cd5 ed5 5.t2:lf3 t2:lc6 6.g3 t2:lf6 7.�g2 �e7 8.0-0 0-0 9.�g5 cd4 1 0.t2:ld4 h6 1 1 .�e3 J::l:e8 1 2.'il'a4 A Difficult Choice
In the Rubinstein Variation of the Tarrasch Defence, White faces a difficult choice after 12. 'iVa4 �d7. Which rook to move to d l ? Tradi tionally White has preferred 1 3 . .!:!:ad l . The reason is that his piece coordination is not disturbed after 1 3 ... t2:la5 14.'il'c2, and now a future t2:lc4 is easily answered by �c l , and as the a l -rook has been moved to d l it will not be stuck in the corner. Since 1 3 ... t2:la5 is bad, Black must react with 13 ... t2:lb4 1 4.�b3 a5, when he gets good counterplay. So far so good. So why is 1 3JHdl not White's most popular choice, you may ask? The reason is that now the above argument may be turned around. This time 1 3 ... t2:lb4 is no good because of 14. �b3 a5 1 5 .t2:ld5 when after all the ex changes on d5 Black does not have �h3, winning an exchange, since the fl-rook has been moved to d 1 ! This trick has been known since the game Vaganian-Ivkov, USSR Yugoslavia 1 975 (see the notes to the main game). Hence, tradition ally Black has replied with 1 3 ... t2:la5 reasoning that a future 1 66
t2:lc4 will now seriously embarrass White's dark-squared bishop.
Lautier Revives Keilhack
Enter Lautier, who has shown in a recent game against Grischuk, Enghien-les-Bains 200 1 , that there is no need for the bishop to move at all. For White gets a pleasant edge after 1 3.J:Hd l t2:la5 1 4.'iVc2 t2:lc4 1 5.t2:ld5 ! t2:ld5 1 6�d5 t2:le3 1 7.fe3, when Black has not enough compensation de spite his bishop pair. Was this sur prising novelty perhaps found with the aid of a materialistic

computer program? Hardly so, it is actually more surprising that this has not been played before in a top-level game, because the move 1 5 . t2:ld5 ! had already been suggested by Harald Keilhack in 1 993 in his seminal work on the Tarrasch ! In fact, Lautier Grischuk bears a remarkable resemblance to Kelecevic-Wein zettl, Wattens 1 988 ( 1 3.J:Iad l ) - a fine effort by White.
Conclusion
The whole 1 2.'iVa4 line is quite concrete. White simply prepares to

attack and win the isolated pawn. Therefore, Black's counterplay is often also based on some very con crete tactics. I have already men tioned that White must carefully check the tactics when he takes d5 (see Vaganian-Ivkov, but also Olafsson-Nunn, Groningen 1 974 - 1 3 /i:JdS?). The positional ex change sacrifice on e3 is another typical feature that he must avoid (see Paunovic-Poulenard, Mont pellier 1 989, and Ljubojevic Bosch, play-off Dutch Team Championship, Breda 1 999). Black's main worry is that he sim ply loses d5, but he may also lose after a quick kingside attack (see Gurevich-Summerscale, France 1 999). In conclusion, 1 3 ..1:Hd 1 is stronger than 1 3 . .l:!.ad 1 , as the former neu tralizes Black's counterplay quite effectively. For the moment, the onus is clearly on Black.

'i¥d6! was introduced in the game Urban-Myc, Warsaw 1 997. Black isn't any worse in this posi tion. C) After 8.'i!Vb5 Black can de cline the gambit trying his play with the central advance e5, or keep the pawn with 8 . . . �d2 9.ti:lbd2 c3 1 0.bc3 ti:lc3 1 1 .'i!Vd3 ti:ld5. And after further e4 he must decide, where to put the knight: to b6, e7 or f6. 1t seems to me that the
latter two possibilities are the more promising. White has reasonable compensation for the pawn, but probably not more. D) And finally the sharpest line: 8.�b4 ti:lb4 9.a3 b5 10.'i!Vb5 ti:lc2 l l .'it>d2 ti:la1 1 2.'i¥c6 �d7 1 3.'i!Vc4 c5! 14.'i!Va2. The impres sion that Kortchnoi's convincing win as Black over Ivanchuk made (Tilburg 1 989) was so big that until very recently this line had become a rare guest in tournament prac tice. And after 1 4... 'i!Va5 1 5 .b4 cb4 1 6.'i!Va1 l:!.c8 17.ti:le5 �b5 ! Black is indeed doing well. I was won dering why White did choose this ill-reputed line in the very impor tant last round battle Kaidanov Goldin, Philadelphia 1998. The explanation given to me by Greg ory was very simple: he analyzed the position after 1 5 .ti:lc3 ! cd4 1 6.ti:ld4 J:Id8 17.l:t:a1 and found it playable but during the game he mixed up the moves ( 15.b4? !). As this line seemed attractive to me, I tried to play it in the World Open the following year. How ever, my opponent Rashid Ziatdi nov also failed to remember the long forced line. So when Kiril Georgiev chose this line against me as White in the featured game in Panormo 200 1 , he did not catch me by surprise. Still I didn't find it easy to defend Black's cause.
Survey CA 3. 1
My line of defence was first seen in Bareev-Adams, Dortmund 2000. Although all four games played with this variation finished peacefully, I can't help feeling that White has ample scope for im provement.

Ql 1.1
And The Beat Goes On 1 .d4 tt:lf6 2.c4 e6 3.tt:lf3 tt:lc6 4.a3 The Black Knights Tango ( l .d4 tt:lf6 2.c4 tt:lc6) has received con siderable practical exposure since my treatise in Yearbook 4 1 . Sev eral grandmasters, most notably Yermolinsky, Benjamin and Bolo gan have played the line success fully against very solid opposition. It's fair to say that 3.tt:lf3 e6 4.a3 remains the best choice for the first player. Black's options are 4 ... d6 and 4 ... d5. The second line was tested a few years ago in Kasparov-Yermolinsky, Yerevan Olympiad 1 996, where the former
STATISTICS
World Champion obtained a edge out of the opening. While 4 ... d5 remains playable, 4 ... d6 has emerged as a very strong alternative. The original inventor of the system, Viacheslav Che banenko, preferred 4 ... d6 on ac count of its originality. Moldovan grandmaster Viorel Bologan (who incidentally was among the group of remarkably talented youngsters I was coaching together with my then good friend V. Chemov for a short period of time in Moldova) has been an active and successful promoter of this system. A summary of challenges Black is facing after 4.a3.
4. . . d5
Here 5.tt:lc3 remains popular, al though Neverov's idea 5.e3 g6 (5 ... dc4 ! ? 6.�c4 �d6 ! ?) 6.b4! �g7 7.�b2 tt:le4 8.tt:lbd2 is inter esting. I believe there are no prob lems for Black after 5.cd5 ed5 6.�g5 in a view of 6 . . . �e7 7.tt:lc3 tt:le4 (see Gentes-Orlov, Vancou ver 200 1 ). After 5.tt:lc3 main lines are 5 ... g6 and 5 . . .�e7. Kasparov put some problems before second player after 5 . . . a6 (Silman) 6.cd5 ed5 7.�g5 (as in Kasparov Yermolinsky). The lines after 5 ... g6 6.�g5 �g7 7.e3 h6 8.�h4 0-0 9.�d3 look more favorable for White. In case of5 ... �e7 6.�g5 h6 7.�h4 tt:le4 the resulting position is playable for Black. I have not seen many games with 6.�f4, but this move is not to be underesti mated.
4. . .d6!?
Bologan has played this move with a great deal of success. The main line here is 5 .tt:lc3 g6 ! ? It's fair to say that 5 ... �e7 6.e4 e5 7.d5 tt:lb8 8.�e2 gives White a small edge. While the position is closed and thus the loss of time on ttJb8-c6-b8 and e6-e5 is less felt, it's neverthe less substantial. While White's victory celebration is, by all means, uncalled for, playing this line is a risky business for Black. 1 75
Further, 6.e4 Ji.g7 leads to position similar to the Classical Variation of King's Indian. The games where White played 7 .Ji.e2 0-0 8.0-0 brought him little success af ter 8 .. Jle8 ! ?, followed by e6-e5. Another idea, 7.h3 0-0 8.Ji.g5 ! ? was recently introduced by Stuart Conquest against Bologan and later repeated in the featured game Krasenkow-Bologan, Shanghai 200 1 . White provokes h7-h6 and retreats to e3, making h6-pawn vulnerable to a later attack. In ad dition, White develops his queen's bishop to d3 instead of e2, cover ing the crucial e4 square. Bologan drew both games, but in his com ments to Krasenkow-Bologan he suggests l l .Ji.e2 ! ? as an improve ment, allowing White's queen to protect the important d4 square. While this suggestion is certainly very sensible, I feel we have not seen the end of Black's efforts in this line.
Minor Lines
White seldom opts for an early ad vance of his queen's pawn after 5.tt:lc3 g6. Not much material is available on 6.d5, only Khari tonov-Brodsky, Koszalin 1 999, proceeded in this direction. The final position of that game appears to be balanced. Another sensible idea for White is 6.g3, hoping to make use of the tempo a2-a3 in later developments on the queenside, although I can not quite remember any King's In dian line other than the Classical where the expansion with b2-b4 is successful for White. Both in Sorokin-Poluliakhov, Novgorod 1 999, and Bonin-Benjamin, Sara toga Springs 2000, Black success fully deployed 8 .. J:!:e8 ! ?, once again intending to meet e2-e4 with e6-e5 and tt:lc6-d4.

Black omits a7-a6 hoping to have an ex tra move in the regular lines. Quite a luminous idea!

Omitting d7-d6
Another even more luminous idea to save a tempo is to omit d7-d6. Black just executes the standard Panno-moves a6, llb8 and b5 without engaging in d6. In nota tion: 5 ... t/Jc6 6.0-0 a6 7.t/Jc3 llb8. Although Istratescu, Gutman and Nunn have experimented with this approach, to the best of my knowl edge it has never been treated in a theoretical manual. Now that this idea has suddenly raised its head at the highest level in some corre spondence games, it is about time to have a closer look at it.
The main game stems from the NBC Millennium E-Mail Chess Tournament currently still under way. After 8.d5 t/Ja5 White plays 9.c5, which is consistent given that Black has omitted d6.
After the plausible sequence 9 ...b5 1 0.cb6 cb6 l l ..lif4 (forcing d6 after all ! ) l l ...d6 1 2.t/Jd4 .lid? White launched a novelty 1 3.b4 ! , yielding a better position indeed! Six moves later White declines Black's ex change sacrifice and seals a lasting advantage with 19.e4!
Beating The World Champion
Does this mean the end of Black's concept? Well, at least Black will have to come up with an improve ment and we wonder whether it will be Timmerman himself who comes to Black's rescue. After all he has great analytical qualities, he is heading the ICCF rating list for 1 82

an extended period of time now and has won several postal tourna ments with great show of strength. While I am writing these very lines the message comes in that Tim merman claimed victory in the 1 5th World Championship, con firming and enhancing his distin guished status in the world of correspondence chess. The Study Material is of relatively limited size. There is a dearth of games. Usually Black plays d7-d6 after all, transposing to all sorts of regular lines.

White moves his rook away from the X-ray of �g7, then plays b3, neutralising Black's typical plans ti:lb6-c4 or �c4. The variation has been extremely popular in the past two years and Black has to play very precisely to retain his chances for active piece play ! After IOJ:!:bl ! ? 0-0 1 1 .0-0 ti:lb6 1 2.b3, Black can choose between two possibilities:

B ) 1 2 ... �b7 1 3.tl:lh4 ti:le8 ! ? was played in Milov-Tregubov, Deizi sau 200 1 , when Black played e6 and obtained satisfactory counter play in the centre.

(l3.b3 '®'a3 ! with good play for Black, as in Avrukh-Ponomariov, Batumi 1999) has been popular lately, when Black faces problems (see Yakovich-Calzetta Ruiz, Saint Vincent 2000 and Malakhatko Aveskulov, Alushta 2001).

The plan of developing the bishop to e7 looks more passive than a kingside fianchetto, but it gives Black sev eral advantages. The lines with the bishop on e7 have not been subject to so many theoretical investiga tions. Furthermore, if White chooses to close the center with d4-d5, it will be easier for Black to bring his 'bad' bishop back into the game via d8 and b6 or to swap it on g5. Thirdly, the pawn structure be comes very stable and steady. In this survey we will consider the position after 9.h3 b5 1 0.a3 �b7 l l .'i¥c2 J::!.e 8 1 2 .l:!Jd l VJ/ic7.

This position calls forth associa tions with several other openings. Apart from the above-mentioned KID, which closely resembles this Old Indian - especially after the exchange on e5 - one can observe similarities with the Philidor De fence. There is one very important difference, however. In the Philidor the c-pawn is still on c2, which requires a completely dif ferent plan from White, relying more on piece play in the center and on the queenside. In the Old Indian pawn structure White's plan is more likely to be oriented towards a queenside pawn attack

and the breakthroughs c5 or d5. The positions in this survey will often remind us of a Ruy Lopez structure (as in Petran-Lobron, Euro-Cup 1989 for instance), in which, after the exchange of c pawns ( 1 3 .cb5 cb5), White tries to exploit the weakness of the c6square and Black's inability to rap idly transfer his pieces from the kingside to the queenside, where the main battle is going to take place. Black's plan lies in the chance to exchange on d4 and break through with the typical thrust d6-d5. These and similar plans can be borrowed from the
Survey 01 6. 10
Ruy Lopez, especially the Breyer, Zaitsev or Smyslov systems. It seems White has to close the center at some moment in order to prevent Black from executing his plan and to carry out his own, but the main question of this entire line is: what is the right moment to do so? Because if d5 is played too early, Black may be able to close the center with c5 and to create some counterplay on the kingside. Another drawback of an early d5 lies in the fact that White himself might not yet be ready for the queenside attack. In order to pre pare queenside play, it is reason able for White to postpone d5, but if he delays it for too long, Black might be able to materialize his plan first. In the main game of the survey (Shulman-Krechetkov, San Fran cisco 200 1) White tries to prove that Black's plan is going nowhere and that it White need not play d5, as Black's attempts of freeing him self after ed4 and d5 do not prom ise complete equality.

Schmid Benoni Pseudo-Volga Gambit 01 15.8-9
Early Aggression without Punishment? 1 .d4 tt:lf6 2.tt:lf3 c5 3.d5 b5 4..lii.g5 tt:le4 4 . . . tt:le4 is the most energetic way to follow up on the aggressive plan behind the Volga-like 3 ... b5. Among the alternatives are 4 ... .lii.b7 (covered in Yearbook 49 by Karel van der Weide), 4 ... �b6 and 4 ... d6. Very strong players like Topalov and Avrukh have played 4 ... tt:le4 regularly, and not without success. White has to decide where to with draw his bishop. Extravagant moves like 5 . �d3 or 5 .h4 cannot yield any advantage for White, see Golod-Topalov, Bugojno 1999, and Kozul-Topalov, Istanbul Olympiad 2000. On 5 . .lii.f4 Black's most reliable reply seems to be 5 ... .lii.b 7, attacking the weak d5 pawn. Now 6.a4 was recommended, but in Chatalbashev-Degraeve, Ohrid 200 1 , Black's reply was 6 ... tt:lf6, continuing the attack against the weak central pawn, with unclear consequences. More popular these days is 6.�d3, and White was successful in Mittel man-Avrukh, Israel 2000, obtain ing an advantage in the opening. However Avrukh's recommenda tion 8 ... tt:lf6 ! looks like a useful improvement. In Wells-Fogarasi, Hungary 200 1 , Black tried this idea and the opening gave rise to immense complications.
The Main Line Black's idea remains the same in case of 5 ..lii.h 4; 5 . . . .lii.b7 is the con sistent reply. White's task is much easier after other moves. Inserting 6.a4 a6 doesn't help much, see Burmakin-Avrukh, Ubeda 200 1 . After 6.�d3 Black has to keep his knight in the centre with 6 .. .f5 7.tt:lbd2 c4 8.�d4 lt:la6, and after 9.c3 Black held his own in Kramnik-Topalov, Monaco rapid 2000. Other moves, e.g. 9.lt:le4? (Naumkin-Markus, Bad Worisho-
9.0-0-0? 200 1 ) fen and Israel (Hasidovski-Greenfeld, 2000), are inferior. The quiet approach 6.e3 would have given White a small advan tage with correct play in Timman Topalov, Wijk aan Zee 200 1 , so it deserves serious attention.
Conclusion All in all, Black's aggressive set up is not refuted at all, and now it is White who has to come up with some strong novelty.

Create Your Own Pizza 1 .c4 e5 Vi:lc3 �b4 3.tbd5 The 2 ...�b4 variation reminds me of a watch with a changeable cover. Black can handle it in many ways. They are all similar, but at the same time they are also different. Black intends to take on c3 at once, when practice suggests that Black gets a playable position. Let me remind you, dear reader, that one of the longest unbeaten records in top chess was stopped in this set-up. When Adams beat Kramnik in Dortmund 2000, it was in a Sicilian with 3.�b5, followed by 4.�c6. If White wants to prevent the demolition of his pawn structure, he either has to move the queen to c2 or b3, or move the knight. The only sensible move with the c3 knight is 3.
metaphors, let's return to the posi tion. There are four ways for Black to withdraw his bishop: to e7, d6, c5 and a5. And 3 ... a5 is another possibility. Black can choose a move according to his or her lik ing. I will provide you with a line for Black against the moves I think caused most problems since the publication of the last two surveys on this subject in Yearbooks 28 and 35. Take my choices if you like them, but if not, I am sure there are other ways to play in many cases.
The 3 �d6 Retreat First, let's discuss the retreat 3 ...�d6. ...
It has a natural aim: Black wants to
play ... c6 and ...�c7 and then to oc cupy the centre with ... d5. White's best answer seems to be 4.d4, which leaves Black no time for exe cuting his plans. Salov scored a nice win over Kramnik years ago, but that game was later improved upon. Illescas handled the line originally, he beat his opponent Arizmendi imaginatively after 4 ... c6 5.de5 �e5 6.

Metaphors While I write this introduction an other metaphor comes to mind. Most pizzerias allow their guests to create a pizza to their own taste. That's what this article intends to do for you, too. Before I get too obsessed with 203
9. tLlhS (a rare move in any opening line) can be met by Black in a satis factory way.
The 3 �a5 Retreat ...
If you like spicy food, this is your dish. In most variations White gets the two bishops and has more pawns in the centre. Black, on the other hand, is slightly ahead in de velopment and hardly has a weak ness. In the vast majority of games White takes up the gauntlet and goes for 4.b4, since Black doesn't have real difficulties in other lines. After the exchange of the knight for the bishop by 4. . . c6 S.baS cdS 6.cdS Black can play 6 ... tt.:lf6 and 6 .. .'iYaS. In my opinion the knight move fails to equalise. White, as a matter of fact, has several ways to obtain an advantage. 7.'iYa4 seems to me to simplest way, as it doesn't allow Black to transpose back into 6 ... 'tWaS lines. In the 6 ... 'iYaS line Black does all right against 7. 'tWb3 and 7.'tWc2. 7.e4 does look danger ous. If Black tries 7 ... tt.:lf6, the problem is that after White de fends the e4 pawn and follows up with �b2 and �c3, chasing away the queen, the forthcoming d4 will be rather unpleasant to meet for Black. In his game against Kotro nias, Nikiti/Afytos 1 992 Lautier managed to highlight the weak nesses of Black's position rather instructively. It is logical to try and act first with 7 . . . d6, to be followed by S ... fS . Af ter 8.�b2 fS 9.lkl tt.:le7 10.�c3 Berkes quickly reached a won po sition, but my suggestion 10 ... 'iY a3 needs practical testing.
The 3 jt,c5 Retreat ••.
This retreat has its devotees, but it has always been slightly less popu lar than 3 ... �e7. Black hopes to play c6 and dS. White can start chasing the bishop at once with 4.b4, when both 4 ... jld4 and 4 ... jlf8 are playable. 4.tt.:lf3 is more testing. Gulko got a good position as White against Shabalov (Salt Lake City 1999) af204
ter 4 ... e4. A reversed French Ad vance looks pleasant for White. 4 ... c6 is the most common move here. In Ohrid 200 1 Mikhail Gurevich deviated from the trod den paths with the novelty 6.g3. It did not hurt Black. White's plan is slow and it allowed Gyimesi to take control of the centre.
The 3 jt,e7 Retreat •••
Once Shirov's favourite, this is the most common move. It is remark able it was hardly ever played be fore the early nineties. Black appears to give up his bishop with out any form of compensation in the pawn structure, but if White takes on e7, Black would have two developed pieces and White none. This is a rather unusual situation af ter four moves. White does not seem to gain much advantage with slow moves like 4.e3 or 4.g3. 4.d4 or 4.tt.:lf3 followed by S.d4, are the most ambitious tries. Lautier's ap proach in Tilburg 1996 with 4.d4 d6 S.tt.:lf3 e4 6.tLld2 fS 7.tt.:lb l seems to have caused Shirov, the guru of the variation, to stop playing it. It is un pleasant to play against such a strong bishop on gS. Since White made a backward move, maybe Black can afford to spend a tempo on stopping it with 9 ... h6. But that is merely a suggestion of mine, it has never been tested. 4.d4 d6 S.e4 is another straightfor ward and ambitious attempt by White. Both Karpov and Kasparov had a go at it. In the PCA tourna ment in Novgorod 1 994, Shirov was unable to survive the opening against Kasparov after S ... c6 6.tLle7 'fie7 7.tLle2. However, Stisis im proved on Black's play (7 ... tLlf6) and beat Srnirin convincingly in the 1999 Israeli Championship. S ... tt.:lf6 is more common. The position af ter 6.tt.:le7 'fie7 7.f3 asks for imme diate action, for if White preserves his central formation he will enjoy a lasting space advantage. So al though White has the two bishops, Black still wants to open the posi tion, a logical strategy as he is
ahead in development. I think 7 ... ed4 is the correct way to handle the position. I like the plan of at tacking the pawn structure by cas tling kingside, followed by tt.:ld7 and fS. See my notes to the game Hansen-Sokolov, Groningen 1 99S.
An Untested Option Finally, Black can defend the bishop with 3 ... aS. This strategy is less popular than 3 ... �e7 or 3 ... jlcS. The pawn move has a drawback: if the bishop drops back to cS, e2-e3 and d2-d4 becomes more powerful, as there is no check on b4. On the other hand, if White takes on b4, the open a-file yields Black a nice position, and if the f6 knight can reach cS, Black will even take over the initiative. The pawn move to aS also gives Black an option that has so far not been tested in practice. Black can maintain his stronghold on eS with d6 and tt.:lc6, because the bishop can go back thanks to the vacant a7 square. In that way Black will ex ert considerable pressure on d4 and White will have problems de veloping his queen's bishop. It is interesting to note that people rarely retreat to a7 after aS and a3 have been inserted. I cannot work out why.
Conclusion 3.tLldS is a dangerous move and that it will remain. I think there is no objectively best answer to it. In reply, players should choose a line they like best. Although 3 ... jld6 and 3 ... jlaS are by no means unre futed, it seems that White has the upper hand in both of them at the moment. Still, if you like them, try to improve on the existing theory. You may be rewarded by finding something. It is not clear who profits most from the insertion of aS and a3. The 3 ... jlcS retreat seems to fulfil Black's aim in this variation: just to get into the game with a play able position. The dangerous paths in this line are even less clear than

after 3 . . . �a5 and 3 ... �e7. Against 3 . . . �e7, 4.d4 has ousted the other moves. If you manage to find a way against it that makes you feel good about life, I am sure you will be able to meet the other attempts as well. Each of these lines still has enough room to find new ideas for either side. Once you have made up your mind which line to play and how to construct a repertoire to your own taste, I wish you ban appetit, as if it was a pizza of the house.

English Opening Symmetrical Variation EO 32.3
No Cure Yet 1 .c4 c5 V2:lc3 tZ:lc6 3.tLlf3 t2lf6 4.d4 cd4 5.tLld4 e6 6.g3 �b6 7.t2ldb5 t2le5 Prelude I had only a few days to prepare for the category 1 3 tournament in Kharkov, which was to take place in the second half of April. When hastily going through my oppo nents' games, I noticed that several of them used to react to the English Opening with the symmetrical set-up l .. .c5, 2 . . . t2lf6 and 3 ... t2lc6. So, logically, I decided to try and find a line that would bother them a bit. My quest resulted in the variation examined in this survey.
STATISTICS
The Line At Stake I will concentrate on the position arising after 7 ... t2le5. Presenting the subject in Yearbook 45, Kick Langeweg evaluates 8.�f4 as 'unable to lead to any advantage' . This assessment is still valid, as long as Black replies 8 . . . t2lfg4 9.e3 a6 - see for instance L.Hansen C.Hansen, Aalborg 2000. Surpris ingly enough, alternatives to 8 . . .tLJfg4 quickly lead to difficul ties: 8 . . . �c5 is well met by 9.�g2 ! (Bruzon-Volokitin, Lausanne 2001), and 8 ... d6 ended in a disaster for Black in L.Hansen-De Firmian, Denmark 1 998. After 8.�g2 a6 9.�a4 deviations
from the main move 9 . . . l::!.b 8 have not been popular lately, although in my opinion 9 ...t2lfg4 and 9 ... t2Jeg4 are worthwhile too. This leaves us with the ending arising after 9. �a4 l::!.b 8 10.�e3 �c5 l l .�c5 �c5 1 2 .�a3. Black has now two ways of trading queens: 12 ... �a3 or 12 ... b6. When prepar ing for Kharkov, I understood that Black does not have any trouble after 12 ... b6 13.�c5 bc5 14.tLJd6 ri;;e7 1 5.t2lc8 :C:hc8 1 6.b3 g5 !, as first played by John Emms. Recent games confirm this conclusion. The alternative 12 ... �a3 1 3.t2la3 is less drawish. Here I managed to find an improvement over former games, where White regularly al lowed ... t2lb4. I have to admit that I have never been as lucky when try ing to guess my opponent's open ing choice as in Kharkov ! Both Ruslan Ponomariov and Pavel Eli anov followed my preparation and experienced problems. Those en counters constitute the main games of this survey.
Conclusion It seems obvious to me that Black is doing all right in this variation if he continues with 1 2 ... b6 and later 16 ... g5. 16 ... d5, which was the novelty of Yearbook 45, is also in teresting but less secure. In fact, I do not see any perspective to play 21 1
for a win as White after the king side has been blocked with g5 and h5 . In case Black wants to spice up his day a little bit, he can always in vestigate alternatives at move 9. To sum up: White definitely needs to find something new!

Monographs Lev Alburt & Alex Chemin Pirc Alert! A Complete Defense Against l.e4
As a service to our readers the editors keep a close eye on all issues on the subject of the chess opening. Publications in any form, (e.g. books, CD-Roms and videos) may be the subject of a review in this section.
Uncredited reviews are by the NIC editorial board. All publications mentioned are in English unless otherwise indicated.

Chess Information and Research Center 2001 448 p. $ 34.95 This is not your average opening book. It is not just a book about the Pirc, or only a complete defence against l .e4 (although that in itself is quite an achievement). This book is also about a certain method of working on the opening, and more importantly still this book will teach you about chess. It de serves to become a classic, and it also deserves quite some review ing space. Now that I have given you my very positive overall evaluation I can safely start with some minor criticisms. When you casually flick through the book you may be shocked by the colourful (black and blue) presentation. What is more, I sus pect that quite a few non American readers will have to get used to its 'self-advertizing' style. The authors (Alburt) boast about their achievements in true Ameri can(?) fashion. I personally won dered why they felt the need to pat themselves on the back. I trust this is for commercial reasons - 'buy this book'. However, just reading the names of the authors on the jacket should convince many
chess players of the value of this book. Two strong and serious Grandmasters, one of them clearly a supreme Pirc expert. When the names mean nothing to you, then the contents of the book, even at a casual glance, should convince many a skeptical buyer. Coming back to the black and blue presentation. This book has a strong didactical side. Ideas are extremely well explained. They are first touched upon, then worked out, and finally summa rised and repeated. The authors make admirable use of presenta tion techniques here. There are many diagrams, the blue ones indi cating the most important posi tions. General ideas and guiding principles stand out in large type within blue boxes. To give a few examples of such guiding princi ples: 'It's best for Black to play ... c7-c5 or ... e7-e5, inviting White to push d4-d5 rather than e4-e5.' (p.37), 'Pressure on e4 is a key idea for Black in the Philidor Pirc.' (p.86), 'In the Philidor Pirc, we should look to trade off the c8bishop.' (93). Such rules of thumb are conducive to the learning pro cess and clearly enrich this book. Unfortunately, the tendency to have blue boxes every few pages leads to a number of superfluous and even annoying 'guide lines' . Surely it is not helpful for the reader to know that 'Lev Alburt, after only a few lessons in the Pirc
from Alex Chemin, found a move that changed the theoretical as sessment of a key variation ! ' (p.223), nor does the general state ment 'Black has compensation for the exchange' (p.254) which refers to a specific position deserve to stand out in a blue box.
The Structure of Pirc Alert! The book is divided into three main parts. Part I (written by Alburt) de scribes in a personal account how this book found its authors, and, more importantly, how this book should be used. The next two parts form the bulk of the book. They are mainly written by Chemin as the Pirc expert (although he was appar ently assisted by Alburt in part Ill the exact division of roles is not clear here). Part 11 explains the gen eral themes and ideas of the Pirc in slightly less than 200 pages ! Thus the main structures are explained as well as the most important ideas for White and Black. Important strate gical operations are highlighted: such as, which pieces to trade and not to trade, playing for c5 or for e5, releasing the tension (ed4) or not, and so on. Finally, the third part gives you the theory of the Pirc, or at least those variations selected by Chemin for the reader. Some 230 pages divided logically into 5 sec-
tions (depending upon what gen eral idea White plays for) which are in turn divided into a total of 1 1 chapters. Each of these 1 1 chapters starts off with a one page overview with 4 diagrams preparing the reader for the coming discussion. Next there follows an introduction with some of the main ideas and important move orders and specific tactics. These sections partly over lap or repeat themes already ex plained in Part 11. However, repetition is an important didactic instrument and the reader will surely benefit from this approach. Only then do we get pages and pages of moves and analysis: i.e. the traditional opening book. Even here, though, this book compares favourably to others. Chemin gives his expert opinion on many lines. Indeed, he seems to be holding nothing back - a rare thing for an active grandmaster - even adding numerous TN's which are marked accordingly (in blue of course). The only drawback that I can think of is that this is a repertoire book written from the Black side. This means that not all lines are covered, but only those which Chemin deems strongest for Black against that particular line. The conse quence is that the book is less use ful for those who play against the Pirc. A danger for a black player is that if the particular line chosen by Chemin is not your cup of tea, or gets refuted in the future, you will have to look elsewhere for an alter native. On the positive side you might argue, as indeed the authors do, that the reader is saved a lot of time having to examine every sin gle line and trying to find out which is best. That time-consuming part of opening research has already been done by an expert, and he is willing to share his opinion!
Learning Chess: Part 11: General Themes and Ideas In Part I Alburt argues that the in tended readership of this book in cludes even those players who do
not play the Pirc and do not intend to take it up (p. 17). While this is tantamount to saying that every one should buy this book, I must confess that on the strength of Part 11 alone I do agree. Chemin does a great job as a chess instructor, and he certainly does not limit himself to the intricacies of the Pirc. Thus, he explains Nimzowitsch's theory of 'Overprotection' in a very clear and succinct manner.
This is a slight adaptation of one of Nimzowitsch's diagrams. Chem in's explanation is in fact more lu cid than Nimzowitsch's own from Mein System. In the above dia gram: 'The d4-outpost is attacked and defended by an equal number of pieces on both sides, and the situa tion can be characterized as a total paralysis of the defending pieces. ... So none of the White pieces in volved can undertake dynamic ac tions against Black's position.' (p.87) Next he adds a White rook on d3 and a Black on e8. This changes the situation, for 'now all the White pieces become dynamic, so that any one of the group - the f3knight, e3-bishop and even d3rook - are free to move and can take part in active operations. . . . Thus when White strengthens his outpost by adding more defending resources, he doesn 't tie himself down further. On the contrary, such reinforcements lead to posi tions where all White's pieces have more freedom.' (pp. 88-89) This is indeed what overprotection 223
is about, but I don't think I have seen it explained so well before. However, things will get even bet ter, for Chemin now makes the idea of overprotection valuable for a specific type of Pirc position which he calls the 'Philidor Pirc' (i.e. positions where Black re leases the tension with ... e5xd4). In such positions Black's single most important idea is to build up pressure against pawn e4. Chemin builds up his argument with the help of three diagrams. The first one is good for Black, the second one is good for White and the third one is dynamically equal.

Here White has overprotected e4, and Black therefore has no coun terplay and is clearly worse. This leads to the following success formula: 'the number of attackers against the e4-outpost must be no less than the number of defenders' (pp.89-90). This rule is rightly em phasized within a blue box. Finally, Chemin presents the theo retically important game Aseev Zakharevich where we find a case of dynamic equilibrium.
While the number of attackers and defenders equals out at the mo ment, it is also true that both sides have one rook in reserve for at tacking and defending e4. For an extensive analysis of this position, buy the book! Interestingly, Chemin later (pp. 1 1 2- 1 24) comes back to these games to discuss them in detail. This not only helps the reader to memorize the most important points, but, as I have argued above, increases the didactic value of the book. There is much more to be said about this Part. I am also quite im pressed with the number of well chosen illustrative games with which Chemin supports his argu ment. Another nice feature are the diagrams which illustrate a certain positional idea or higlight a strate gic operation. Take, for example, the following one (p. 1 0 1 , 108): How to recapture?
Aseev,Konstantin Zakharevich,Igor Elista ch-RUS 1 994 (2)
Black is better as White is tied down to the defence of e4, more over b4 is threatened.

Some Theory To give you a more specific idea of what these theoretical chapters look like we will now skim through one particular chapter called 'Chapter 17: The Classical System, I; Introduction & 5.�e2 ' . For reasons o f space I move di rectly to the theoretical variations in one particular line here (Varia tion B l , pp.3 10-3 1 3).

The choice for 6 ... �g4 and not 6 . . . c6 has been explained in Part 11: 'Not because 6 ...�g4 is actually stronger, but rather because there is a clear concept behind it' (p. l 29). Three lines are now discussed: A) 7.h3, B) 7.iLe3 and C) 7.a4.
B) 7.�e3 ti:lc6 Here Chemin divides the material in two main lines: B l) 8.'1Wd2 and B2) 8.d5. He rightly mentions that other moves cannot hurt Black, citing briefly: 8.�d3 e5 9.d5 ti:le7 1 0.ttld2 �c8 ! (TN), with the idea of ... ti:ld7 and ... f7-f5. This is one of the many instances where Chemin gives a novelty for free.
81 ) 8.'t'Hd2 e5 Now B l a gives the innocuous end game line 9.de5 deS l OJiad l . Here I like Chemin's recommen dation 10 . . . �c8 l l .'iVc l l:id8 1 2.l:Id8 ti:ld8 ( ! ) which is a simpler equalizer than the more common 1 2 ... 'iVd8 - which he does not even mention! Let us continue with B 1 b: 9.d5 ti:le7 1 0.J:!.ad1
meet f2-f4.' This is quite an inter esting suggestion, more so be cause it has hardly ever been played! It is just one of the numer ous valuable ideas that are casually dropped by Chemin. Still, his quite ruthless method of selection is another typical feature of this work. Thus, 1 0... \t>h8, 1 0... .tf3, 1 0 . . . ti:ld7, 1 0... ti:le8 and 10 ...b5 are not deemed worthy of receiving a small note or game reference. I, for one, am surprised that 1 0. . . b5?! - a move that became fa mous after Black's victory in Karpov-Azmaiparashvili, Soviet Championship, Moscow 1 983 - is not given. It is true that the theo retical value of this move is negli gible, however, its main ideas are quite close to those of 1 0. . . �d7 ! From a historical perspective the game is of some value for the whole line, and what is more Kar pov losing a game as White was quite a rare occasion in those days ! Here it is: 10 ... b5?! l l .a3 [We now know that l l ..tb5 is the refutation, both l l .. ..tf3 and l l ...ttle4 are insuffi cient] l l .. .a5 1 2.b4 ab4 1 3.ab4 l::ta3 14 ..tg5 [compare the follow ing exchange sacrifice (which can hardly be accepted) to the one be low in Brunner-Fioramonti]

Yet, it is re markable, especially for an open ing tome of almost 450 pages, that only one other move is mentioned at this stage. I quote: 'Playing in King's Indian style with 10 ....tc8 ! also deserves attention, leaving d7 as a retreat for the knight on f6 for example, l l .ttlel ti:ld7 ! .

tournament in Bastia Chemin did very well. He made it into the final, not even losing to Anand. His three draws versus the Indian genius gave him second place overall. He held his own in a fashionable Pirc quite easily:
Jeroen Bosch
Anand,Viswanathan Chemin,Alexander After quite a long but impressive theoretical expose we have ended up with this, very unclear, posi tion. Considering the importance of this line, Chemin's conclusion is, uncharacteristically, vague: 'We've followed the game Kamin ski-Finkel, 1993' . . . 'Finkel recom mends 2 l .. .tLlfS, with good play for Black. The move 2l .'�c8, which was actually played in the game, looks worthy as well.' Both moves may indeed be good, and it may be true that Black has a good position. Yet, I would like to see how things might develop. It is true that we are on move 2 1 , so perhaps it is a bit much to ask of the writer of an opening book to continue his analysis here, yet I don't understand why the rest of the game is not given for the read er's benefit. So, here is the rest of that game: 2 l . ..Wfc8 ! ?

As an afterthought on this slightly critical note of mine the following lines (Alburt in Part I, Chapter 3, p.26) deserve to be quoted in de fence of the authors: 'Whatever your playing strength, nothing will improve your opening results more than home preparation - your own work in your own home over your own board.' So true, so true. ..
Chernin remains alert in the Pirc! In the recent (knock-out) rapid 226
volume sets high standards for the next two volumes, and gives this reviewer something to look for ward to. Actually, I wouldn't mind an extension of this series either. Provided that the same passion and effort is put into it: why not hope for 'Alekhine Alert ! ' with Alburt as its expert author?

Future Plans Pirc Alert! constitutes the first part of a projected three volume series on openings. Volume 2 will pro vide a complete defence versus all other first moves. While Volume 3 will give you a complete White repertoire. The quality of this first
Everyman 2001 176 p. £ 14.99 Byron Jacob's publication about the French classical is a must for everybody who wants to pick up 3.tt:lc3 against the French. The author delivers a complete overview of all the lines that can occur on the basis of 78 grandmas ter games that are thoroughly analysed. Practitioners of the French themselves I would just ad vise to buy this nice (but English and therefore rather expensive) book. As with any theory book from Everyman Chess, the advantage of the presentation by games is that the reader gets a grip on the strate gic, and sometimes tactical, ideas behind the opening. When he or she (unwillingly) enters unknown territory or simply forgets theory he or she should be able to cope
with problems ahead. The draw back of the approach is that it can take rather long before you have a good view of the opening and therefore the risk of mixing things up seems considerable. The author has managed to include some games from 200 1 in the book which is nice, not least because at least one of them was quite enjoy able for the writer of this review. The oldest game presented is Kaplan-Bronstein which took place as far back as 1975 but can still be studied without any risk for one's repertoire. Lastly, I would mention the some times inconsistent use of exclama tion and question marks by J acobs. I do not see the point of calling a move interesting (with ! ?) without giving alternatives, or giving a series of ! for Black and some ? ! for White when the position re mained equal.

David Cummings Symmetrical English Everyman 2001 1 60 p. £14.99 'Symmetrical English, again?', I hear you think. Yes, with Vladimir Krarnnik in the driving seat the Eng lish Opening has regained its popu larity. Make no mistake about it, the English Opening is not just a dull,
cowardly opening to prevent your self from losing, not even the sym metrical English! One should realize that what one gets from an English Opening often is what one gets from the black side of a Sicilian Defence - dull, cowardly? I think not - with an extra move to spare! Less than a year ago, Carsten Han sen authored a bible that seemed to cover everything one can come across in the symmetrical English. So what does Cummings have to add? Well, first of all a new book that will be a pleasant read to many. Secondly, the insights of an expert. Nothing wrong with that. Cummings strives to not only take us through the opening, but also the middle game, which of course is directly linked to the opening, the symmetrical English. The author is successful in this as all 63 games he presents are easy to fol low and analyzed from beginning to end. His second wish to cover all critical lines is a bit over ambitious given the 'limited' amount of pages he was awarded by Everyman. Cummings' third objective is to reveal all the ins and outs of symmetrical-English move orders. Now, that is quite a task and in itself a reason for many, readers, chess players and writers, to stay away from the (symmetri cal) English (or to buy this book as Cummings does not fail). Yet, as it is more about quality than about order in the English Opening, the moves presented by Cummings will be of great help to many chess devotees. The only question that remains is, who will write the 2002
ford. In the meantime he has moved to Australia and now The Ultimate Closed Sicilian has been released by the same publisher. This automatically raises the ques tion whether or not this is a rehash of old material. When we compare the Contents we notice the two books use a similar structure, both in terms of variations and of for mula (theory incorporated in com plete games). Yet my initial doubts proved premature. Lane did write a completely new book, albeit on the same subject. Which players feature in the 64 carefully annotated Main Games? On the White side Adams is a prominent player alongside the 3 S's: Short, Smyslov and Spassky: two English players of the present, two Russian giants of the past. On the Black side Kasparov is the ob vious trendsetter, with two games as recent as 200 1 . This is anything but the ultimate book on the Closed Sicilian. Still there can be no doubt that Lane's book gives an excellent insight into all aspects of this opening sys tem often used as a strategic alter native to the endless tactical jungle of the Open Sicilian. The book is structured around the deployment of both king's knights. White has to decide if he wants it on e2, f3 or

h3 (with or without a pawn on f4) whereas Black can choose be tween e6/(Dge7, e5/(Dge7 and (Df6. Systems with an early e6 and d5 for Black as well as omitting 2.(Dc3 are included and Lane's coverage of topical lines such as the 1 O.e5 gambit in the main line is also quite to the point.

Schach ! ! Verlag - Jtirgen Daniel Price DEM 46.90 each If, after reading Jeroen Bosch 's re view above, you decide that Pirc Alert! is not your cup of tea, then here is another complete defence against l .e4: the French, which by the way (according to Stefan Kin dermann at least) could equally well have been dubbed the Ger man Defence, in view of the large number ofleading German players who have used it on a regular basis, with Wolfgang Uhlmann as their patriarch.

These two tapes cover the most important points of a complete French repertoire for Black. Part I deals with The Tarrasch, Ex change and Advance Variations and the King's Indian Attack, while the second tape is devoted entirely to the Winawer. It is, of course, impossible to cover all the ins and outs of the entire opening in a little over four hours of taped instruction, but the viewer who follows Kindermann intently through this crash course, will have obtained a nice overview of the opening and will already have a good idea of most of the impor tant positional ideas relevant to this repertoire, as well as specific knowledge about the main lines. One will have gathered enough in formation to start playing the opening immediately, at least at club level. Of course there are sidelines and subvariations not featured in these tapes which one will want to fill in later. The variations chosen remind one of John Watson's selection in his book Play the French, but there are significant differences. As one would expect from Kindermann, his recommended defence in the 7.'ifg4 Winawer is not 7 . . . 'fl!c7 (as
Watson advocates), but 7 . . . 0-0, the variation on which he wrote an authoritative book together with Ulrich Dirr (see Yearbook 60 for our review). In the Tarrasch Variation both authors offer essentially the same line, Kindermann crediting Wat son for some ideas, while criticis ing him at other points, e.g. in the line l .e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3 .(Dd2 (Df6 4.e5 (Dfd7 5.�d3 c5 6.c3 (Dc6 7.(De2 'ifb6 8.(Df3 cd4 9.cd4 f6 10.ef6 (Df6 1 1 .0-0 �d6 12.(Dc3 0-0 1 3 .�e3 �d7 14.a3 �e8 1 5.(De5
In this positioin Watson recom mends 1 5 . . . �e5 ! 1 6.de5 'ifb2 1 7.ef6 'fl!c3 1 8.fg7 'ifg7. No good, says Kindermann, who considers White's attack after 19.'fl!d2 to be much too dangerous. He offers his own idea 15 . . . J::l.c 8 instead, with some supporting analysis. A peculiar thing happens when Kindermann the introduces Milner-Barry Gambit in the Ad vance Variation. He uses the move order l .e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.e5 c5 4.c3 (Dc6 5.(Df3 �d7 6.�d3 �b6, which is considered inaccurate by theory because of the possibility 7 .dc5 for White. Black should pre fer 6 . . . cd4 7.cd4 and only now 7 . . . 'ifb6. In general, however, Kindermann really knows what he is talking about and, in spite of the rather dry presentation, these tapes can be readily recommended to anyone wishing to take up The French De fence. Anyone who understands German, that is.

How to read NIC Statistics
Each NIC survey is accompanied by a statistical evaluation of the line or variation under discussion. All statistical data is extracted from the New In Chess Database, containing more than 850,000 games, with aid of the statistical functions incorporated in the NICBASE database software. The New In Chess Database is com piled by careful selection of in coming data, by sifting out insignificant or obscure games and tournaments as much as possible. The statistics extracted from the database will therefore present a more reliable picture than those gathered from other, maybe larger,
STATISTICS
but more indiscriminitely com piled databases. The data is presented as a graph in dicating White's scoring percent age in four different cases. The number of games upon which the statistical analysis is based is indicated in the white box inside each bar. Each NIC Statistics item centres around the survey position repre sented in the diagram at the top of the page. The first bar shows the score over all games featuring this specific position. Generally the other three
bars represent different (sub)varia tions or entire opening systems, but in some cases the score of a particular player (an expert in the field) has been depicted instead. For correct interpretation of the in formation it is important to re member that even if the player defends the Black side of the sys tem, the scoring percentage indi cated is still that of White. For instance, if the graph shows a score of 40%, this means that the player in question has a success rate of 60% as Black!
1.d4: Best by test! White's score over the entire NIC Database is 54.8%, as can be seen in the graph below. Of White's two main opening moves, l .d4 scores significantly better than l .e4. The main culprit responsible for this state of affairs is portrayed in the fourth bar.
