Sicilian Accelerated Dragon
I played last night as black against an NM and we played a mainline Accelerated Dragon with 8...Re8 and we got to the 12...Bb7 line.
In the video lessons the plan is to play 13...Qc7 and 14... c5 getting our light squared bishop more active and not letting white start his attack on the kingside, since exd5 isnt possible because at the end of the exchanges the white bishop on e3 will hang.
However, my opponent played 13. Bh6 first to trade the dark squared bishops and now Qc7 and c5 isnt working because the bishop isnt on e3 to hang. I ended up going with this plan anyway, sacing the d5 pawn (and a second on c4 after the c5 push) to get activity but was way worse in the endgame 2 pawns down. I did manage a little #SLP and he offered a draw while he was winning because I was making him work very hard to win and a draw gave him first place in the tournament, but I am wondering what a better plan would be after 13. Bh6.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Here is the game for any who are interested. I loaded it into chess.com so I could share it, but it was an over the board game at a time control of G90+5

Hey Jay.
Nice question.
After g4 good move would be Rd8. Both rooks are interesting.
You want to take de4 and also to play c5 and even e5 sometimes. If he plays g5, Than you go Nh5 and he has problems with f4 square! (he just changed the dark square bishop).
Rd8 is strong if played h4, instead of g4, too :) the Same idea.
Bh6 is a logical move, but the problem of that move, is that is going fight for the center, black wants to play c5 or e5, and with Bh6 white loses time.

Reti opening
What is the most uncomfortable line against the Reti opening?
Replies
I have played Reti as White and I feel that 1...c5 is the most uncomfortable line for White because most White players will not be prepared to play 2.e4 and transpose into the Open Sicilian. There is an excellent course on this for Black with Maroczy Bind Fianchetto Variation video course. However, the drawback of playing 1...c5, is that you have to prepare for the Sicilian if White plays 2.e4. The lines tend to transpose to the Symmetrical English which I personally prefer as Black.
Hi Loyd!
Against Nf3 you can also go 1...Nf6.
If 2.g3 then g6.
If white wants to achieve something, soon or lose it will be transposed to Maroczy Bind course.

1...e5 or french???
Hi Champions!!,
What do people think about playing either french with after 3 nc3 nf6 4bg5 dxe4 nxe4 be7 bxn gxf6. The Morozevich line. or the archangel and 1...e5. which is sharper. I am a sharp tactical player. I have been told that and many many wins that way!! I lean towards 1...e5. other than guicco piano (I would play Nf6 not Bc5) and Scotch nf6 again only ruy confronts it head on. Then french is very stable and still gives counterplay. I like the space and no bad bishop with e5. Plus I like 1e5 as if morozevich line gives out not sure what to play? I would have tons of lines in 1e5 please advise.
Thanks,
Marc

Benko Gambit Accepted
I’m trying to learn the Benko Gambit but no one is accepting and I’m stuck trying to learn strange positions. Any one else having this problem?
Replies
I'm having the same problem. These days, many of my opponents play 2.Nf3 or the London system after 1.d4. I'm looking forward to having these systems covered in the d4 sidelines course.
When I do get the Benko, my opponents often play 4.b3, resulting in fairly dull positions where I'm struggling to generate chances.
I'll complete the d4 sidelines, once I am back to home.
Before that just follow the streams, as I all the time comment on the games, how to play against sidelines, which opponents plays.

2019 Illinois Open Chess Tournament
Just Completed my first FIDE rated tournament . And 12 years after my last USCF rated tournament .http://www.uschess.org/assets/msa_joomla/XtblMain.php?201909023492.1-13459254
Finished +2=3-1 , gained 30 USCF rating points , based on the rating estimators performance rating was 2224 , ruing the missed chances that resulted in draws. Copied the games , need to play lot more games than now , conversion seems to be big problem . Hopefully GM Avetik will see the games and give some feedback . In One Benko game I fought very hard and got winning position at the very end missed a tactic and threw the win to settle for draw. Last round again got very promising position with white ( against Marvin Dandridge ) but then took wrong decision and settle for draw , I knew I outplayed him in the opening but at crucial moment took wrong decision to settle for draw.
Got to know Kevin Ho as he was playing too.

Scotch advanced sections
Hello! Is there advanced videos on the 8...Qe6 9...Nb4 line or 8...f6 9. c4! for the Scotch Game?
I may be missing them, but in the normal videos it says they are in the advanced section :)
Thanks!
Matt
Replies
Hey Matt!
Will add them in this week.
The following line also needs to be re-visited as it is a popular choice by strong players in recent tournament praxis:
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 exd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nxc6 bxc6 6.e5 Qe7 7.Qe2 Nd5 8.h4 Qe6 9.g3 [9.Nd2!? is also worth investigating] d6!?
By the way in the line: 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 exd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nxc6 bxc6 6.e5 Qe7 7.Qe2 Nd5 8.h4 Qe6 9.g3 Nb4 I discovered that contrary to what has been published White can actually sacrifice the exchange with 10.Bh3!?N Qd5 11.0-0 Ba6 12.Qd1 Bxf1 13.Qxf1 Nxc2 [Better is 13...Qe4 but even so, after 14.Nc3! Qxc2 15.Bg5 is still very dangerous for Black, especially in over the board play.(15.Be3!? is also interesting) ] 14.Nc3 Qf3 15.Qc4 h5 [15...Nxa1?? 16.Bg4+- And the Queen is trapped] 16.Rb1 White's initiative more than compensates for the exchange. If this analysis holds up then 10.Bh3! is a powerful novelty waiting to be sprung on an unwary opponent.
I hope the Advanced Scotch section gets updated soon as promised.
Warmest Regards.
Daily Game 6: Grigoryan - Hovhannisyan Question
I was going through the Grigoryan - Hovhannisyan game again and I was wondering if there is a difference between Ra3 and Ra2.
In the game, Ra2 was played followed by Qa1-Ne5 limiting the c7-bishop.
Does playing Ra3 make any difference?

Hi Coach
Hi Coach is this the correct line?

Hi Bobby!
Nice checkmate :)
Instead of f4, I would go d4, and start exploiting the weak d6 square. In this lines, when black plays g6,Bg7 and then e6, they should be very careful with d4.
So in the sidelines course of GM Gabuzyan, you can notice, that he always puts his knights on d4, to prevent white to play d4.

OK, I made some mistakes, for instance 11.f5 seems way better than 11.Ng5. However it's a win against a titled player, 900 fide points above me. A miniature with the key idea of rook sacrifice and the typical development ideas of the repertoire (like the manouvre Qd1->Qe1->Qh4).
