    Great idea for an improved Benko gambit! This was played by the Hungarian GM Laszlo Barczay in 1976 in several games and should be named after him.

    Really love watching your gambits! Still trying to figure it all out, was playing it out a bit, and at 36:15 you have the opponent moving e4 to get their bishop out to castle. Opponent goes to a possibly better move - KnE5, threatening a Rook/Queen fork. I castle, but with Knight on E5, I can't prevent white from castling :(

    I've played 1.... Nf6, 2.... c5 and 3.... a6 a lot. There's a lot of transpositions. Benkos, e5 Sicilians, and Czech Benonis. A number of players 4. Nc3 b5 5 Nxb5 Ba6 6 e3 which loses a piece.

    21:00 Shankland’s d4 course on Chessable actually covers the a3 line quite well, with the point being that you can play Ne2 to reinforce the knight and renew the threat of b4. Black’s best line seems to be giving up a piece and the queen gets chased around a bit, but you probably still have some play

    After 3 Nf3: ...e6 and...d5, which WG suggests, i.e.Janowski's QGD, is not a gambit of course, but we can't have everything.
    Maybe 4...Bb4, a strange NID with ...a6, essentially a move down unless ...b5 can somehow be arranged successfully. Playable though: Stockfish 16 +0.5

  • @brucelittleboy3594
    @brucelittleboy3594 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Stockfish 16 suggests: 2...a6 3.Nc3 c5 4.d5 b5 5.a3 This stops ...b4 and permits 6 e4 [edit: as noted at 56:18]

    59:55 This is a direct transposition to the Dzinzi-Indian Defense. Many GM games have gone 4...c5 5 d5 and either 5...b5 or 5...exd5 6 exd5 b5

  • @brucelittleboy3594
    @brucelittleboy3594 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Interesting move order, deferring the Benko's...g6 and the Blumenfeld's: ...e6. And avoiding both the truckloads of prep needed for the former and the known vulnerabilities of the latter. There may be potential transpositions to the 'The Modern Treatment of the Blumenfeld Gambit' [1 d4 Nf6 2 c4 e6 3 Nf3 a6 4 Nc3 c5 5 d5 b5] in Przewoznik and Pein (1991), but you show that Black can do better than this and thus sidestep quite a few fragile lines in the Blumenfeld. Also Eric Schiller, Win with the Djin! (1994) is based on an early Nf3.

    I play the 1 ... Nf6, 2 ...c5 3. ... a6. If a4 then I play e5 and Czech Benoni where white with a4 can't castle q side and also the common break white a3-b4 is a lot harder. Although Czech Benoni has a solid rep, there's variations where black delays castling, plays Nf8-g5, ng6 and throws stuff up to attack the k side with the center closed. Benjamin finegold plays this.

  • @brucelittleboy3594
    @brucelittleboy3594 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Your analysis of the line works very well with 3 Nc3 which is apparently more aggressive than 3 Nf3, but the lines tend to turn out to be comparatively attractive for Black. I look forward to what you'd recommend after 3. Nf3. Perhaps 3...b5 4.Nc3 e6 5.cxb5 axb5 6.Nxb5 which looks similar, but is less dynamic as the W pawn is on d4.

      @@HighlyCruciferous Good point, but the D-I has issues of its own: 3.Nf3(!) 3...e6 4.Nc3 c5 5.d5 b5 [Djin or Dzindzi-Indian, also played by Miles and Alburt] 6.e4!? gets nasty for B after... 6...b4 7.e5 bxc3 8.exf6 which favours W. Or 6.dxe6!? fxe6 7.e4 (7.cxb5?!) 7...b4 8.e5). The D-I would be fine for playing rapid games online, but risky if repeatedly used in classic games. Admittedly, this site attracts people looking for quick kills in rapid games. And I should mention that I'm only 12 minutes into this video, but I have spent hours following up on the core recommendations in the pgn.

      [My earlier reply has vanished: I'll try again] Good point.
