  • Hello everyone, and today I have the no nonsense beginner guide to the leningrad dutch defense. This underplayed opening is very simple and powerful, and today I'll teach you the basics.
    (also queen's gambit guide coming soon...)

    I am surprised that you suggest g6 as early as move 2, as it is the most common strategic mistake in Leningrad Dutch. The problem with the early g6 is that the pawn on g6 becomes a hook and will easily be punished by h4!. h5 is often followed immediately after and apply kingside pressure on Black. In many lines, White forces hxg6 hxg6 which leads to very uncomfortable position for Black or plays h6 to kick your bishop out to the starting sqaure if you foolishly tried to fianchetto the bishop to g7. To show an example lines, the "main" line you suggested, 1. d4 f5 2. c4 g6?, is crushed by 3. h4! Bg7 4. h5 c5 5. d5 Nf6 6. h6. Even d4 setups as tame as London System can easily dominate with 1. d4 f5 2. Bf4 g6? 3. h4!; just roll the h pawn towards Black and White is all set. I hope that this helps.

    • @Volclus
      @Volclus  Год назад +11

      h4 occurs slightly above 1% of games, so I missed this small detail, starting with Nf6 is more accurate. Nice catch!

    I'm new to chess. Learned the basics when I was a kid & jumping into it now like 3 decades later. Stupid question... What confuses me with all these openers is when playing other beginners, they don't follow like all the tutorials show. What's the strategy when you begin with an opener & they do random moves vs what you're expecting for your opening. Hopefully that made sense.

    • @Volclus
      @Volclus  Год назад +3

      At the beginner level, learning most openings isn't really helpful, because people play whatever, even if it's trash. For you, I would recommend to learn a basic setup you can play in most of your games (Italian Game setup is likely best), and focus on improving your tactics by doing chess puzzles, which will really help you improve.

    • @utubepunk
      @utubepunk Год назад +2

      @@Volclus Thanks! I appreciate the feedback. I will add that when I learned the Kings Indian opening, that really improved my game. I'll look up the Italian opening & start the puzzles, which I've been ignoring. Thanks again! 🙏

      Yes! Although slightly worse without the first move advantage, you can play in about the same way.
