      Thank you! I certainly hope so, though it's not as easy as when posting clickbait cheap entertainment :))

    24:08 Let me present you a corr game: 1.f4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.e4 e6 4.d3 g6 5.Be2 Bg7 6.c3 Nge7 7.c3 O-O 8.Be3 d6 9.d4 f5 Flude-Nieuweboer, corr 2007. White had to fight hard for a draw, including a spectular queen sac . This illustrates nicely your point that 8.Be3 is too slow. Notice that I deliberately kept my d-pawn back. Here 8.d4 (iso 8.Be3) can be met with cxd4 9.cxd4 Bxd4 10.Nxd4 Qxd4 and as the e-pawn is hanging White can't avoid the exchange of queens.
    So in your move order I question 5...d6 (18.:19) and would play 5...g6 instead.

      I'm not sure I understand entirely, because 5...g6 has already been played in that position. If you meant 6...e6, then 7.c3 Nge7 8.d4 works out nicely for White as taking the pawn on d4 is extremely dangerous for Black after 8...cxd4 9.cxd4 Qb6 10.Kh1! and now 10...Nxd4? loses to 11.Be3 while 10...Bxd4 11.Nxd4 Qxd4 12.Qe1 is excellent for White who has long-term compensation in view of the weakened dark squares in Black's camp.

      1.e4 c5 2.d3 Nc6 3.Be2 e6 4.f4 g6 5.Nf3 Bg7 6.c3 Nge7 7.O-O O-O 8.d4 cxd4 9.cxd4 Qb6 10.Kh1 Bxd4 (sorry for the typo) 11.Nxd4 Qxd4 12 .Qe1 Qxe4 and so the weak dark squares fully compensate for two pawns? I think this at least asks for some illustrating lines.

      @@marknieuweboer8099 Sorry, I misunderstood, I had another position in mind. In the line you gave, 12.Nc3 is better than 12.Qe1, but I think White should play more slowly along the usual lines with 8.Na3 and then either Qe1, Nc2, Be3 and d4 according to circumstances.

      Yeah, I looked at 8.Na3 as well. However thus Black has prevented White from building a broad centre. That looks like a small positional victory to me. Black can choose between d6, d5 and maybe even b6. This is the way I would play as Black. It's still a game of course.

    I used to play this structure from the black side in the Rat defense (1.d4 d6 2.c4 e5 3.d5 f5)

    Impressive concept! You convince me it is possible to burn all opening books and just play this Hanham / Old Indian against everything.

      Quite possibly so. It's a simple and easy to learn system.
