Chess Problems Lovers vs Knights of Honor Chess Club
I received a proposal from Knights of Honor Chess Club founder,tennesseehiker
to play a game between our clubs.
I accepted it,that will be a consultation game,with the agreement that members of each club will not read the discussion about the game in the opposite club.
Who will participate in this competition?

Am I correct in inferring we have the White pieces? Has the first move yet been decided?
Cheers,

I'll vote for...
1.Nf3, just to be different.

But I really have no problem with any reasonable debut...

I'm in ...
and I vote for the flexible 1.Nf3 as well.

1.Nf3
Trying to escape from boring prepared lines

1.Nf3
Great flexibility!
macheide
29-Apr-17, 06:40

1.Nf3 is a great, solid move. A favourite of Kramnik.
elenapetrova
29-Apr-17, 07:42

Then our move is Nf3
elenapetrova
29-Apr-17, 08:11

Their move is d5
1.Nf3 d5
Make your votes,please

2.g3
White's choice is between

a) 2.d4 reaching the Queen's pawn game (probably Queen's Gambit or Slav)
b) 2.g3 King's Indian attack, still flexible
3) 2.c4 probably reaching Slav or Queen's Gambit if Black doesn't want to play 2...d4 with a reversed Benoni
4) 2.b3 Nimzowitsch favourite
5) 2.b4 a sort of Sokolsky was played by Alekhine but never become popular

choice is a matter of taste
macheide
29-Apr-17, 09:35

2.d4, I like my share of the center.
macheide
29-Apr-17, 09:37

Of course, I've played 2.g3. It's also a good move.

29-Apr-17, 09:55

I will join if I still can.
elenapetrova
29-Apr-17, 09:57

Of course you can,and are welcome!

29-Apr-17, 10:01

2.g3
Still seeking some flexibility and a strategic rather than a sharp tactical opening.
teardrop34
29-Apr-17, 10:09

Thanks elenapetrova
I prefer 2.g3 as well.
macheide
29-Apr-17, 10:10

Good enough to me too.
