Miscellaneous Systems

Until now we have studied White's main systemsagainst French Defense: after 1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.e5, 3.Nc3, or 3.Nd2.In this lesson we will see other variations thatWhite has at his disposal. The most importantsystems are: the King's Indian Attack (1.e4 e6 2.d3) and the Exchange System (1.e4 e6 2.d4 d53.exd5), all the rest being rare and un-pretentious.

We start with 1.e4 e6 2.f4, a move which isplayed very rarely and mostly at low-levels.

1.e4 e6 2.f4White gains some space on the kingside, but inthe same time, his f4 pawn will block the activityof the c1-bishop. Also, this move does very littlefor the center.

C001.e4 e6 2.b3Reti Variation

1.e4 e6 2.b3 Reti Variation.White plans to castle long and, using thefianchettoed bishop, to support a future attackwith the g-pawn against Black's kingside.However, the b2-b3 move has a badconsequence: Black will easily open the a-fileusing a7-a5-a4advance. Black's developmentplan includes Bb4, Qe7 followed by Bb4-a3 witha very fast attack against White's queensidecastled king.

[White can regain the pawn by other movestoo. Black can use the plan we talked aboveor use the weakness of the d4-square playingNb8-c6-d4 and e6-e5:

C001.e4 e6 2.c4Steiner Variation

1.e4 e6 2.c4In Steiner Variation, White wants to make adouble exchange on d5, opening the center.However, he is left with an isolani d-pawnwithout a serious compensation. Black has to bea bit careful to some tricks, but knowing the first9 moves is more than enough.

This position can be reached by transpositionafter 1.c4 e6! 2.e4. So, if Black wants to playSemi-Slav Defense or Dutch Stonewall setupsagainst 1.c4, the move 1...e6 is perfectlyplayable.

2... d5 3.cxd5 [ 3.exd5 exd5 4.Nf3 Nf6 5.d4 -> C01 ] [ 3.Qa4+ Bd7 4.Qb3 d4³ ] [ 3.Qb3 Nf6³ ]

C021.e4 e6 2.Nf3 d5 3.e5 c5 4.d4Nc6 5.Bd3

1.e4 e6 2.Nf3This move is weaker than 2.d4 because Blacksucceeds to play c7-c5 before d2-d4. However,this move might have the intention to sacrificethe d4-pawn (which we see now) or the WingGambit (with b2-b4) that we'll see in the nextline.

3...c5 4.d4 anyway...4... Nc6Black could take directly on d4 (before Whiteplays c2-c3 defending the pawn) exchanging asemi-central pawn (c-) with a central pawn (d-).However, we prefer the normal developmentfirst.

5.Bd3!?The idea of this system connected with thesacrifice of the d4-pawn is that White doesn'twant to lose time by defending his d4-pawn andhopes for a rapid development of his pieces intheir best positions (Bd3) followed by a quickattack on the kingside. However, there is nomuch danger for Black.

[After 5.c3 we would enter the main lines ofAdvance System. ]

1.e4 e6 2.Nf3 d5 3.e5 c5 4.b4 The WingGambit.White's idea is to eliminate the tension in thecentre (with the price of a marginal pawn) andthen start an attack on the kingside withoutbeing disturbed by Black's pressure in thecenter.

5...Nc6 6.axb4 Bxb4 7.c3 Be7 8.d4White's idea of this system is clear now. He is apawn down but got a strong centre that Blackcannot attack anymore. Moreover, the open a-and b- files could be later used to put pressureagainst Black's queenside.However, a pawn is a pawn and by accurateplay, Black is closer to victory. His bestdefensive measures are connected with a rapiddevelopment of the queenside and occupyingthe c4-square with the knight. His king is stillsafe in the center.

11...Bb5!Black accepts to be left with double pawns(giving up the advantage of a pawn), but afterthe exchange of the light-squares bishops,White remains with no attack chances on thekingside, while Black has strategic superiority onthe queenside. Also, Black can exchangesooner or later one of his double pawns by b5-b4.

C001.e4 e6 2.Qe2Chigorin Variation

1.e4 e6 2.Qe2The Chigorin System is the only way for Whiteto delay d7-d5, however that's all. This systemis a sort of King's Indian Attack as White willdevelop his bishop on g2.

2... c5 [Black shouldn't play 2...d5? 3.exd5because he then must retake with the queen:3... Qxd5 4.Nc3² ]

3.Nf3After 2.Qe2, it is clear that White doesn't fightfor an opening advantage, so there is no tensionin the center, both players develop calmly and,therefore, some transpositions can occur.The following variations should not be taken asnecessary opening theory, but as variousexamples how this position should be played.

1.e4 e6 2.d3By this move (2.d3 or by 2.Qe2), White choosesthe King's Indian Attack.The idea of this system is to keep a strong pawnon the e-file (now on e4, later on e5), developquickly the kingside (with fianchetto on g2) andstart an attack here.An important difference between this systemand the Advance Variation is that White defendshis advanced pawn on e5 with the pieces, notwith a pawn on d4. White keeps his pawn on d3,not giving Black an easy target for attack.However, with the pawn on d3, Black will have amore space on the queenside.

Instead of this variation, Black can simply playone of the other plans mentioned above:a) pressure on the e5-pawn (with: Qc7, Nc6,Nd7), b7-b6 preparing the fianchetto on b7, and

when White plays h2-h4 to prevent g7-g5 ->castle long, h7-h6 and then g7-g5 opening thelines on the kingside and pressure on e5.b) castle short, attack on the queenside with c5,b5, b4, Ba6, c4. And when White's attack overthe kingside becomes dangerous -> play f7-f6and then try to advance e6-e5

C001.e4 e6 2.d3 d5 3.Nd2King's Indian Attack

1.e4 e6 2.d3 d5 3.Nd2 c5After developing the kingside, White's plan is toplay e4-e5 (separating the kingside from therest of the board), followed by h2-h4, and usingALL his minor pieces together with the queen toattack the black king.The King's Indian Attack (KIA) is often playedagainst the French Defense, even Fischer likedit very much.

So, against KIA we prepared a very solidsystem which should cut White any attackingchances on the kingside. Dvoretsky, who playedand analyzed it a lot, also considers thisvariation (that we give here) the best for Black.The idea is not to allow White to play e4-e5.Black will permanently have a piece moretargeting this square and, in the end, he will playf7-f6 and e6-e5. This way, Black will also gainmore space in the center and, eventually, afterblocking the center, will start an attack on thequeenside.

C011.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.exd5 exd5Exchange System

1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.exd5The Exchange System is often met at club-level.By exchanging the central pawns, White avoidsthe typical French structures, creating asymmetrical pawn formation.

After this exchange, all Black's openingproblems are solved as all his pieces (includingthe problematic c8-bishop) have good squares.When White chooses this system, it means heis happy with a draw and, it is true, in theresulting position it is harder to fight for a win.However, Black can create an imbalance bycastling long and in the eventuality that Whitecastles short, the fight will be characterized byattacks on opposite sides. This way, White'shopes for a draw are seriously repelled.

3... exd5 4.Bd3The most common continuation.

[There are also some other plans for White:

A) 4.Qf3White adopts an interesting setup by which heactivates the queen. The kingside knight willbe developed via e2 on g3. The problem isthat White doesn't take the important e5-square in account (as with Nf3) and thereforeBlack has one problem less.4... Nc6!forcing White to occupy the c3-square with apawn. The b1-knight will have a long journeyuntil an active position.

5.c3 ( 5.Bb5 doesn't bring anything good: Nf6 6.Ne2 Bg4 7.Qc3 Bd6! 8.Bxc6+ bxc6 9.Qxc6+ Bd7 10.Qa6 Ng4ƒ 11.h3? Qf6-+threatening Qxf2 and Bb4 in the same time;Bykhovsky 2400 - Ulibin 2535, 1997 )

5...Nf6 6.h3As you see, White is losing many tempi withthis setup (h3 was forced against the threat ofBg4). Black only has to develop his piecesand then take the control over e4-square.6... Be6 7.Bd3 Qd7 8.Ne2 0-0-0 9.Nd2

Bd6 10.Nf1 Ne4 because the development iscomplete and White is still struggling to findsome position for his pieces, Black startsactive operations in the center and, then, onthe kingside (by f7-f5, g5-g4 and so on).The sacrifice of a pawn is completely justifiedas we can see further: 11.Bxe4 dxe4

( After 17...f4 18.Nf1 Be4∓ Black has astrong attack. )]

[B) 4.c4 A rare variation by which Whiteaccepts to play with an isolani pawn. This kindof structure is usually not on the taste of 1.e4players (it is much more common in 1.d4openings) so hopefully we will not meet it toomuch in our games. A complex player likeKasparov however used it with some success.

4... Nf6 5.Nc3 ( 5.Nf3 Be7 6.Nc3 -> 5.Nc3 ) 5...Be7 6.Nf3 0-0A small "secret" against this variation is todevelop the kingside first, followed by themaneuver Nb8-d7-b6 before the developmentof the c8-bishop. This would allow White togain the initiative by Qb3 with attack on b7.

7...Nge7 8.Bg5 f6this move is very useful for Black since he willcastle long and wants to attack the kingside byplaying g7-g5.

9.Bh4 Qd7 10.Nbd2 0-0-0÷ The gamebecomes interesting with attacks on oppositesides.White will attack on the queenside by playing b2-b4, a2-a4, b4-b5, a4-a5 and b5-b6. Black willattack on the kingside by playing g7-g5, h7-h5-h4, g5-g4.Some tips about this position:- Black will retreat his c6-knight on e7 or d8 (ofcourse, after he clears those squares). Theknight shouldn't go on b8!- Black will use the open e-file for his d8-rook.- In case of Qa4 attacking the a7-pawn, Blackshould play Kb8 and the white queen on a4 willbe out of play and moreover will block theadvance of the a-pawn.- If White plays h2-h3, Black's attack is muchstronger because advancing the g-pawn (g7-g5-g4), he will open much quicker the g-file.- Black can use the f4-square by playing Ne7-g6-f4.At the end of theory, we attached a set ofinteresting games starting with this position.

So, here weshould attack on the centre and develop theknight via e7 on g6 and, after this, the bishopcan be developed.

16.a4 Die Zentralinitiative 16.h3 ¥f5 17.¥xf5¤xf5 18.£e6 würde an der Antwort g4scheitern. Qd6 17.a5 h4 18.b5 Nd8 19.b6

Kb8! 20.bxc7+ Etwas besser erscheint 20.c4. Qxc7 21.c4 hxg3 22.hxg3 dxc4!Schafft einerseits das Zentralfeld d5 für denschwarzen Springer und lenkt andererseits den¤d2 von der Verteidigung des Königsflügelsweg. 23.Nxc4 Falls 23.¥xc4, so ¤f5 mit

entscheidendem Angriff. Qxg3 24.a6 Nd5 25.Be4 Interessant wäre die Variante 25.axb7¤f4 26.£a2 a6! (nicht 26.¦xb7 wegen ¦eb1 mitder Drohung £xa7+) und Schwarz gewinnt. Nf4

26.Qb2 Bxf3 27.Bxf3 Rgh7 Aufgegeben. Einfür die asymmetrische Spielbehandlung sehrlehrreicher Fall: Schwarz hat es im Gegensatzzu Weiß verstanden, (mit 14... ¦g7)Zentraldefensive mit Angriffsplänen am Flügelzu verbinden.0-1
