christ. not a King's Indian. Does no one realize how screwed that is against computer analysis? Kramnik has shown that with the advent of the bayonet attack, the KID is dead. Leave it that way.

I vote 2...e7-e6.

Vote for sanity please.

Ya but the queens indian rox

Also he's not using a computer so it's a pretty moot point anyways.
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

guys what the hell, queen's indian produces such simpler mid-games imo that it makes it incredibly advantageous, why make things difficult when you don't have to?

the budapest gambit has been refuted amongst high level players. Only Mamedyarov still uses it, and his wins all come in endgames from evenish to slightly losing midgames - wich doesnt say much when a super GM has to scrounge wins against GMs and IMs.

I am well aware of that. I highly doubt though that too many GMs visit tl.net (actually we have an IM with OnePageMemory), so it wouldn't really make a difference. I am a bit tired of the standard openings and want to see something new where you actually have to think for yourself in the beginning.
