I like 6. ...a6, too, and it would be more in line with "our sponsor"
|

|
feisty-feline and ace-of-aces: please, give your votes
|
|
I prefer 6....a6 but how white will be one pawn ahead. Will there be any compensation ? by having advance in development ? The alternative is 6...Qa5+. If White defend with 7 Nc3. then 7....d5 and then attqck White's N on c3.

OK, we'll have to move, and 6. ...a6 seems to be it
|
|
vote a6
follow the leader
|
|
Am I the leader? That doesn't bode well!
|

|
No, I am the leader
|
|
Stal
You're the captain but a6 was my suggestion first

5imon
No, it was mine...I thought of it long before you put pencil to paper, and if you disagree you will be FIRED!!
|
|
I'm happy to continue following from the front, oh mighty leader

Obama moved, new position suggestions, please!
|
|
7...d5
Time to claim some space in the centre.
|
stalhandske 20-Dec-17, 23:50
|
7. ...Bxa6
I think we need to do that first
|
|
The only downside I see with 7...Bxa6 is that after 8.g3 d5 9. Bh3 then we have to be slightly re-active as the bishop no longer protects e6. It seems to me that we can pick off the a6 pawn whenever we like. If they try to protect it with 8.e3 then a) we can still take it and b) they've put a piece in the way of the c1 bishop.

|
...but after 7. ...Bxa6: 8. g3 we need not (should not) yet play d5, but the solid 8. ...Be7! d5 comes in due time, but we need to "protect our back" before doing it! We now badly need the votes from feisty-feline and ace-of-aces!
|
stalhandske 23-Dec-17, 23:08
|
We must make the move! We have only two proposals, 5imons 7....d5 and my 7. ...Bxa6 I decide for the latter
|

Obama played 8. g3
New position Our Trump team to move
|
stalhandske 24-Dec-17, 23:04
|
I propose 8. ....Nc6 A natural developing move. Be7 had been that, too, but I think we should develop the Q side first now as White is about to fianchetto their LSB.
|
|
8...Nc6
Yes, I agree.
|
stalhandske 24-Dec-17, 23:28
|
We would now like the votes from feisty-feline and ace-of-aces
|
|
I prefer 8 ...Nc6
|
|
Vote 8...Nc6
A very good choice
|
stalhandske 25-Dec-17, 22:05
|
OK, we'll make the move 8. ...Nc6, by unanimous vote! Nice
|
stalhandske 28-Dec-17, 07:09
|
Obama played 9. Bb2 New position Our move (Trump team)
|
|
I vote 9...Be7. Beware that we are one pawn deficient. White has 6 pawns and Black has 5 pawns.
|
|
Vote 9.......Be7
to prepare for 0-0
|
stalhandske 28-Dec-17, 20:41
|
I think 9. ...Be7 is an excellent move. 9. ...d5 may be an alternative, followed by Bb7 later (e.g. next move). Yes, we are 1 pawn down, but our position is very much better, which - I think - pretty much compensates for the material. We pretty much dominate the centre, for example and are also otherwise better developed. LETS MAKE THE BLACK PIECES GREAT AGAIN!
|
|
9...d5
is my choice again
|
stalhandske 29-Dec-17, 00:49
|
The situation is 9. ...Be7 (ace-of aces and feisty-feline) 9. ...d5 (5imon and stalhandske) Anyone wants to change?
