i appreciate the spirit here but the lines here are total thrash, ne4 is a well known mistake in the french owen as it just gives white even more free development, and the nepo-grishuk game has white with almost a 2+ the whole game. Ne4 in the nge2 line is also known to fail after nb1, c3 c5 where the knight will have to go to the embarrassing g5 square. its well known that agaisnt the nge2 line with nf6, the only two viable lines seem to be , an early d6 hoping for a delayed c5 where d4-d5 later on isnt so damming or d5 but with the odd ng8!?
You do a great job of explaining the why instead of just saying play this line. Thank you
Belated thanks for this video on the Owens!
Thank you for watching! and as promised i show how i do the same as you, transposing to our beloved Hippo whenever we want! :)
As White, I’m always glad to see the Owen… 🤣🤷🏻♂️
hahaha but maybe they play it wrong and you score very well against it!
