Black could then reply ...Nd4 which is a little icky but then you just trade bishop for knight and white is still up the exchange and black has doubled pawns and white is bearing down on the d file.

There is a week pawn and I would like to try and snatch it up. <br /><br />Aftewards I like g4 followed by f3. You consolidate your position and get ready to bring the K into the game. Black's K-side pawns should be frozen now. <br /><br />But the only concrete move I would have from the start is Rab1. I don't care for f4 because you trade pawns, and I'd like to keep those on the board now.wanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12810798413949148423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084619245099614590.post-84558771204806361172009-05-01T01:15:00.000+10:002009-05-01T01:15:00.000+10:00On hte principle that rooks need open lines, I lik...On hte principle that rooks need open lines, I like 1. f4 as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084619245099614590.post-83700135266992612072009-04-30T12:37:00.000+10:002009-04-30T12:37:00.000+10:00I've been reading your blog, and I just wanted to ...I've been reading your blog, and I just wanted to let you know that the 2009 U.S. Chess Championship is May 7-17!
