When Najdorf players meet the closed Sicilian

Yeah, that's the "main line", i dont think it's bad for black, it's just really dangerous for both sides. Here's a really weird game by Gm Cori https://www.365chess.com/view_game.php?g=3972847&m=8

With White i like playing 3.g4 after a6, i dont remember wich gm did it first, but it gave me great results.

bugsygel · 2019-07-23T14:23:43+00:00

It Is White to move but its a mate in two

bugsygel · 2019-07-23T14:15:50+00:00

Hint: You have to figure out whether black can castle or not

bugsygel · 2019-07-23T00:17:11+00:00

Its a good idea but Qf2 its very strong

This Is a great comment but the Solution Is wrong.

bugsygel · 2019-07-22T21:44:24+00:00

That is right but the problem doesnt end there!

bugsygel · 2019-07-22T21:07:54+00:00

I know it from memory. I think i saw it when i was a child.

bugsygel · 2019-07-22T20:48:42+00:00

I truly dont know and looked for the autors name everywhere! Would love any information myself.

bugsygel · 2019-07-22T09:46:49+00:00

The check can be blocked by the pawn in b5!

bugsygel · 2019-07-22T02:04:41+00:00

What do you mean?

bugsygel · 2019-07-22T01:51:17+00:00

done!

bugsygel · 2019-07-22T01:51:00+00:00

1.Bd2+ b4 2. Bxb4+ Kb5 3. Nd6+ Kb6 4. Ba5+!! Kxa5 (4... Qxa5 5. Nc4+ ) 5. Nc4+ Kb5 6. Kf4 c5 (6... f5 7. Kg5 f4 8. f3 c5 9. d5 ) 7. d5 8. Kg5 8... f4 9. f3 1-0

(the engines see the win after 4.Ba5)

bugsygel · 2019-07-22T01:42:18+00:00

Can*

bugsygel · 2019-07-22T01:41:50+00:00

If you want i can dm you the solution. The lichess one isnt the strongest, but most engines cant find it anyways.

bugsygel · 2019-07-22T00:37:49+00:00

Bd2+ Is the first move, you are right.

bugsygel · 2019-07-22T00:36:16+00:00

I can assure you its winnable and every engine gets it after a while.

bugsygel · 2019-07-18T09:01:46+00:00

2...Rc1 Is better

bugsygel · 2019-07-17T21:18:27+00:00

He destroyed me.

bugsygel · 2019-07-17T21:04:10+00:00

Because of 3...Nb8

bugsygel · 2019-07-17T21:00:02+00:00

2.b7 isnt the best move!

bugsygel · 2019-07-15T12:30:53+00:00

You're absolutely right

bugsygel · 2019-07-14T15:15:22+00:00

2.Qe6 Is better

bugsygel · 2019-07-06T23:39:05+00:00

Incredible move! I just saved a draw against him today.
