Dieser Zug wird gerne von Spielern gewählt, die den Königsindischen Angriff
anwenden, um den (möglicherweise) überlegenen Theoriekenntnissen des Gegners
auszuweichen. Er birgt aber ein erhebliches strategisches Risiko, da der Be3
Anwürfen von links (Pd5) und rechts (Pf5) ausgesetzt ist. Es ist auch zu
beachten, daß hier Schwarz ein Mehrtempo gegenüber der Variante mit Pe7-e6-e5
hat. Die Resultate sprechen denn auch deutlich für Schwarz. Dies dürfte aber
auch teilweise auf den unterschiedlichen Elo-Durchschnitt von Weiß und Schwarz

{[%mdl 2] 26/9 Vor dieser letzten Runde führte ich mit einem glatten Punkt
Vorsprung vor Uhlmann und Farago. Auf Remis zu spielen konnte ich damals nicht
besonders gut. Hort hatte wegen eines Todesfalles einige Partien vorge"spielt"
und war nach Prag gefahren. Zur letzten Runde sollte er zurück sein, aber die
Spekulationen blühten, ob er überhaupt kommen würde. Für mich waren das keine
günstigen Voraussetzungen, würde ich mal als Amateurpsychologe und aus
heutiger Sicht sagen.} 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 e6 3. d3 Nc6 4. g3 g6 5. Bg2 Bg7 6. O-O

1. b3 {This move was applied 150 years ago by a remarquable chess tallant -
Van't Kruijs. Now 1.b2-b3 is asossiated with the Nimcovich and Fisher's deeds.

1. Nf3 f5 2. g3 Nf6 3. Bg2 g6 4. b4 $5 {Sometimes, this is played against the
King's Indian, too. The basic idea is the same: White aims for a position
typical for the English Opening (where Hickl is a great specialist) where he
gets to play b4 without the necessity of supporting the pawn with Rb1. However,
if compared with the KI, here Black has less dynamic possibilities since he
has already spent one tempo on a suplimentary pawn move (f5); therefore, White
has every chance to get the structure he aims for.} Bg7 5. Bb2 O-O 6. O-O d6 7.

decided that postponing ...e5 and playing as if it was a normal Leningrad

Germany 2002/EXT 2003 (46) The position is very hard to judge. Black has an
impressive advantage of space in the centre, but he cannot easily make any
progress, since White's structure is very flexible. Maybe objectively speaking
the chances are about equal, but in principle it should be easier to play with
White who has a clear plan on the queen side.}) 9. b5 (9. c5 Qe7 10. cxd6 cxd6

that he would easily defend the c7-weakness and try to get attacking chances
on the other wing. However, since his knight will have to stay on a6, the
attack will never have chances to break through, while White's position
certainly looks appealing from a strategic point of view. True, he has to be
careful because in certain cass the d5-pawn might get under attack.} (11... Qf7

Eine wirklich tolle und interessante Partie beider Spieler. Während Eljanov
die Eröffnung nicht allzu genau spielte und sein Zug 15.Sd5 zumindest aus
objektiver Sicht fragwürdig war, spielte er danach eine perfekte Partie und
zeigte eine tolle technische Leistung. Aus ästhetischer Sicht war 25.Txd3
sicherlich das Highlight der Partie. Rapport hingegen zeigte wie so häufig
kreatives Schach, fand sich aber, nachdem er 15...La6 verpasst hatte, in einer
äußerst unangenehmen Lage wieder. Allerdings darf man gespannt sein, welch
kreative Ideen und taktischen Finessen er noch in den folgenden 12 Runden
zeigen wird.} 1-0

[%mdl 4] It is such unexpected and new idea,which has passed successfully in
this game.Black intends to play e7-e5 on following move,and pawn-e5 will be

Leningrad-system of the Dutch is connected to the english player Basman.
Generally speaking the advantage is to keep the /^ h8-a1 free, while the kings
N is somewhat blocking the view of Bg7 if it is placed on f6. The negative
side is that the N on h6 does not control the square e4, and e2-e4 is what
white wants to play in all dutch opening lines. In this game a lot of things
is in favour of putting the N on the edge. White has spend a number of moves
in playing his Bc1 to b2 thereby opposing blacks Bg7. But this means he has
neither castled nor made ready for e2-e4. In fact the position of the B on b2
- and the pin on the d4-P - is taking away the possibility of playing d4-d5,
which is a normal response in dutch-Leningrad lines where blacks plays Nb8-c6.
