In Game 1 I try to hang on to my bishop pair after 6.dxc5 Bxc5 7.Nc3 with 7...Qa6
Game 1 It prevents losing the Bishop pair to 8...Na4 but the move 8.Qd3 is such a beautiful
move one might not see it. On exchanging of the Queens 8...Qxd3 9 cxd3 White opens his c file develops and prepares an attack
on c7. Now Black is committed after giving up the exchange and possibly winning a knight. He should hang on to that Bishop
pair.
What was the best move for Black? Korchnoi tried. After the 1. Nf3 d5 2. d4 e6 3. g3 c5 4. Bg2 Nc6 5. O-O Qb6 6. dxc5
Bxc5 7. Nc3 (same position transposed)Bb4 Game 2
What does White hope for with 1.Nf3 d5 2.g3 c5 3.Bg2 Nc6 4.d4 ? A Reversed Gruenfeld Defense Exchange variation one
move ahead 4...cxd4 5. 5.Nxd4 e5 Game 3 White wins 70%
of the time with this line.
Another move is 4... Nf6 Don't worry about White taking the pawn 5.dxc5 5... e5 gives
Black a fine game.
But in this line where White castles. I like the copy cat move 1.Nf3 d5 2.g3 c5 3.Bg2
Nc6 4.d4 Nf6 5. O-O g6!! Game 4
