Chess theory ebbs and flows. Lines that have been discarded for decades suddenly become all the rage and everyone starts playing them. A case in point are queenside openings where White plays Bf4. For years these had been the chess equivalent of flared trousers but in recent times they have been reinvented and even the best players in the world are now sporting them.

La défense Sicilienne est depuis longtemps reconnue comme l'une des meilleures façons de répliquer à 1.e4. Bobby Fischer a grandement contribué à la populariser en jouant systématiquement la variante Najdorf. Anatoly Karpov préférait la plus solide variante Taïmanov. Garry Kasparov avait un faible pour la Scheveningue, qu'il atteignait le plus souvent par l'ordre de coups de la Najdorf, pour...

This theoretically solid opening repertoire for White, based on playing 5.d4 in the main line of the Ruy Lopez (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6), gives you a great way to bamboozle your opponent, who is probably unprepared for this variation and its many pitfalls.

I have returned to my book from a few years ago, to an opening that at the time was a rare guest among books as a topic – and not only among books, but also in tournament practice. In the intervening years it has become very popular to use this old and somewhat forgotten method of playing and I have found lots of interesting new games.
This time though I have focused mainly on...

While technically correct, such a reply would overlook the life and legacy of one of the great grandmasters, organizers, and arbiters in chess history.
