    I must day, you explain the moves of an opening in so much more detail than anyone I've watched. It actually helps me to understand the moves when I watch you make them (and hence helps when my opponents go off-book), rather than just resulting in me memorising the moves.

    Ah! A cliffhanger ending! What will become of black?! Will white surge forward, overwhelming his army and laying waste to his castle leaving him naked and afraid? Or will he patiently allow white to advance upon him, holding his counter-attack until he "can see the whites of their eyes" and then, like a jujitsu master, use his enemy's momentum against him, deflecting and neutralizing the attack and leaving his enemy vulnerable to counter-attack? Find out next time on "Dereque Kelley Explains Chess Better than Anyone on the Internet!"

    One of the clearest explanations of the key plans in the Benoni that I've seen. You have a gift for reducing openings to their essential ideas. I especially appreciate that you highlight the variations that don't work in a way that the average club player can understand. Kudos.

    Fantastic. I've been studying the Modern Benoni lately, and this is by far the clearest statement of the reasoning behind the Taimanov Attack that I've come across.

    • @KebuChess

      Excellent to hear! :)

  • @keithmcdonald5317
    @keithmcdonald5317 12 лет назад

    Just found these videos. Quality. For ages I've looked for basic opening strategies from both perspectives. I find that this makes openings accessible - at last :)
    The presentation, graphics and over all style of the videos combined with the well thought out content sets the bar high.
    Well done to those involved.

  • @maduroholdings

    Thanks Dereque.I love your commentary and treatment ofthese basic openings. As a club player. I find a few watches arms me with enough information to begin a basic foray into these openings and defenses.. Thank you a million times. for this particuraly insightful video

  • @leventeadamszabo1914
    @leventeadamszabo1914 7 лет назад +2

    What he never mentioned is that exactly the Taimanov Attack (7.f4) is the reason why Black usually reaches the Modern Benoni with different move order and plays 2.e6 first and only plays c5 after White placed a Knight on f3.
    Well, he basically presented perfectly why is Black doing that...

    @KebuChess  11 лет назад +2

    Thank you for the suggestion! I may in fact do one on the Scandinavian Defense real soon, though I think it may focus on 3...Qa5. Perhaps I can sneak in a reference to 3...Qd6 but I'm not sure :-)

  • @EZCarnivore
    @EZCarnivore 11 лет назад +1

    Hey Dereque, I really love these opening analysis videos, especially this one as I play the Benoni and Benko against d4 quite often. Which leads me to request the Benko gambit as well as the Scandinavian Defense, namely 3... Qd6, the Pytel Variation, and how it relates to other possible queen moves. Looking forward to more of your videos!

    • @MrSupernova111
      @MrSupernova111 7 лет назад

      I was right! Excellent video!
      However, turns out the benoni is far more complex than I imagined. More research is required. Thanks for another great chess opening tutorial!

  • @KebuChess
    @KebuChess  11 лет назад

    Interesting question! 10...Re8 could be an acceptable move but 10...Ng4 gives Black the advantage since it actually wins the e5-pawn outright.

  • @lopnezk1320
    @lopnezk1320 8 лет назад +2

    After 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 c5 3.d5 e6 4.Nc3 exd5 5.cxd5 d6 6.e4 g6 7.f4 Bg7 8.Bb5+ the move 8...Nbd7 is possible but risky. Actually the move 8.Bb5+ in this line is a real headache to benoni-players, because 8...Nfd7 is not very convincing. If Black manages to get a good game with 8...Nbd7 then 8.Bb5+ does little sense. Obviously 8...Nbd7 is a really sharp move since it sacrifices a piece: 8...Nbd7 9.e5 dxe5 10.fxe5 Nh5 11.e6 with 11...Qh4+ being one possibility.

    • @KebuChess

  • @KebuChess
    @KebuChess  11 лет назад

    Thank you! In general since Black has two defenders of the e6 square and White has only one, it is difficult to force this action through. (Black would probably just eat the pawn with ...fxe6)

  • @KuciCicata
    @KuciCicata 9 лет назад

    I often find myself running into those kind of situations where my bishop is at G2, my knight on F3 and my opponent is pushing with his pawns. Looks like I really need to do my homework on that one.
    Still, thank you very much for the basic introduction of the situation. Love your videos, keep 'em coming! :)

  • @MrQmason

    I think all 3 of those openings, Albin, Budapest and Marshall are fun openings to learn and play. The one I get to play the most is the Albin.

  • @KebuChess

    Thank you! I'd have to say I don't see myself analyzing the b5 variation for a video in the near future...

  • @VectorGambiteer
    @VectorGambiteer 11 лет назад

    There are some interesting lines following Bb5+ where Black plays B/Nd7 and afterwards plays Nh5, 'losing' the knight after g4, but even after the smoke has cleared, Black still has plenty of chances.

  • @zoommonkey
    @zoommonkey 12 лет назад

    Again another awesome break down. Cheers m8!

  • @KebuChess
    @KebuChess  11 лет назад

    There are lines in which Black plays ...Na6 and lines in which Black plays ...e5 (though they are usually not played together). It seems to that both of these attempts give White increased chances for the initiative

    @KebuChess  11 лет назад

    Very interesting, I'd have to check out what you're saying but I don't need any convincing that f4 is a little premature. This is interesting! One notices again and again, the importance of White being moderate in his approach to seizing space and playing more restrained and gradually in many openings including the Benoni. And the plan you're describing sounds good, though I might worry I wouldn't have enough control over e5 later. Thank you for sharing!

  • @KebuChess
    @KebuChess  11 лет назад

    Ah! I answered this in the message you also sent. But after 4...fxe6! Black simply has 2-1 in the center and an advantage in development since White has traded off a central pawn that has moved twice for a flank pawn. After 5.Nc3 d5! Black has an upper hand. -Dereque

  • @KebuChess
    @KebuChess  11 лет назад

    I am planning to make more videos yes! Both 1.d4 and 1.e4 can yield a tactical game. I, personally, question the validity of seeking a particular kind of game (tactical, or positional) from the outset. Developing players sometimes appear to spend a lot of time trying to force their games and studies to reach tactical positions, even to the point of choosing second-rate variations and openings for decades.

    @ghillan72 11 лет назад

    I'm not a great player but i play modern benoni ( as black), and i dont agree that f4 its premature. You described the taimanov variation wich was for a lot of time considererd as benoni refutation. Nowadays black learned how to counter it (with Nfd7), but black strugles for parity. Recently fianchetto variation and modern lines became popular, but its matter of what sort of games white are looking for. Immediate break or slow and solid development. Both are good, IMHO its just matter of taste.
