Petrosian System of the Grünfeld Defense
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- The Petrosian System (also known as the Taimanov Variation) is a sideline white could choose to fight the Grünfeld Defense.
It’s not as good as the Exchange variation, both according to the engines and to theory. It allows black to have a simpler game in which he doesn’t have to prove compensation for white’s big center.
It starts after the moves Nf3 and Bg5 for white. After Nf3 (...Bg7), white could still choose the Russian Variation, which is more principled, but if he continues with Bg5, getting the bishop to a very active square in black’s position, that is the Petrosian system
The downside of the move is twofold. Firstly, the c4 pawn can be taken. In fact, in the most common sideline for black, he takes the pawn and holds on to it! It’s almost a clean pawn up. The second weakness is the fact that the bishop can be used as a tempo gain.
In the main line for black, black plays Ne4, attacking the bishop. That either forces it to move for the second time, or forces white to give up his dark squared bishop, the counterpart of the powerful g7 bishop which is the soul of black’s position. In either case, black should be equal already. It’s not easy to play black because white often starts a menacing attack very early on, but if black manages to defend, he is going to be slightly better.
I would advise you to play the Petrosian system if you are looking for a sharp, imbalanced weapon against the Grünfeld Defense. Otherwise, play the main lines. They are better for white.

The only word to describe your content is "PERFECT"
Excellent videos and lucid insightful explanations. Very glad to have found this channel!
Hi mate, thanks for changing the location.👏👏
You should get an engine on your pc to use instead of the lichess one. Lichess' engine only goes to a limited depth. That might be why it's confusing in sharp positions.
It can go infinite though.
Depth 24 is very deep. And you can adjust even deeper. Where your CPU would heat your room.
Excellent video 👍!!!
Yey new video Ive waited for you new videos thanks.
Nice video thank you! (I think in some variations is black better because the best should be Bg5 before Nf3 so black doesn't have bishop on g7 so it is much better for white)
As playing with the White Pieces I have this set up:
Petrosian System of the Grünfeld Defense
1.d4 d5
2.c4 c6
3.Nf3 Nf6
4.Nc3 g6
5.Bg5 Bg7
6.cxd5

This change a lot everything because Queen can go to Qb3, pawn to e3, Ne5 ans weak the f7 square.
Also can continue with a nice attack on the Queen side.
But like you say the key factor as White perspective is to castle Queen's side and make a severe attack on the King's side
In response to Ne4
18:42 5. Bh4
21:21 5. Bf4
22:35 5. cxd5
Sorry for my misunderstood on the Previus video of the Semi-Slav: Schlechter Variation.
It's similar, in the aspect of the Bg5, but pawn e6 is already opened on the Schlechter,
The set up 5. Bg5 as on this current time is Grünfeld Defense: Petrosian System, 5...c6

Thank you again for your patience on all of us just starting to learn chess.
26:51 not Ne2 but Bf5! Forces a trade of light square bishops and opens the black king. Ne2 is still fine.
If possible could you please make more videos on 1d4,nf6 ,2nf3....if possible
You can generally try to transpose into the grunfeld by play 2.. g6 and waiting for white to play c4 and Nc3 then you'll play d5. If they don't play c4 or Nc3 ever youll have to play in a different way unfortunately
No crickets!!
Hi, i just reach your youtube channel and you are doing great work. AND I NEED YOUR HELP !!!
I'm asking about a opening repertoire for a school competition. I'm just a beginner and i want to win this game.
If I'm white, i will play london sytem and maybe prepare some benoni, englund and dutch game litle bit.
But if I'm black. What can i play against 1.e4 , 1.d4, 1.c4 ? I just want a less and light theory but good to play with.(I will watch your video soon🙂)
I'm doing a little preparation in opening right now. But lot in puzzle and endgame. Wish me luck.
FYI against every move but 1.g4, Nf6 is a powerful response. I recommend against d4,... Nf6, e6, d5, c5, and Nc6. This setup can be played against Queens gambit and London/colle systems. For e4, if the push e5, move the knight to d5. If the keep attacking it move it to d6. Let them overextend then win their weak pawns. C4, the system I mentioned against d4 still works well. As black, they may play e6 against d4. If they let you take the center, do it. So d4, e6, e4, d5 will be their response. This is the french. Trade pawns and play c4 and you are fine. Good luck. Btw, in the d4 system I mentioned, after the play e3, locking out their bishop, Qb6 is a strong move, forcing a queen trade pretty much
Hi! When is the next road to gm video?
