Anyone would like to add some notes to it?

Hello, Iam looking for the name of the opening 1.e4 d6 2.d4 Sf6 3.Sc3 e5 . That would be helpful for the bookresearch of this opening. It would be also great if someone can give me a link where i can find analysing of this opening Thanks Thorsten

I should probably know this, but .... I was playing over an old game the other day, and the moves were 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Nc3 Can someone tell me why the modern move order is 3.d4? What's the drawback of 3.Nc3? Also, What's the drawback of 2.d4 (as in 1.e4 c5 2.d4 cd 3.Nf3) as Morphy used to play?

In his book Pawn Power in chess, Kmoch analyzes the game Sherwin - Reshevsky, New York 1953, in the section on Benoni formations (although this particular game is a KID). After 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 Bg7 4.e4 d6 5.f3 0-0 6.Be3 e5 7.d5 Kmoch writes: "7...c5 transposes unfavorably to a Benoni Major. See Szabo - Ivkov." Does Kmoch mean that all Benoni Majors are unfavorable for Black, or just

I have a friend who always starts with 1.d4, and plays a slow, strategic game to win in the endgame. This takes a long time and it's quite frustrating for me. So here's my question. Do you have any offbeat gambits against 1.d4 that I could use to surprise my opponent? It doesn't have to be 100% sound or anything, I just want to try something new and different. Thanks Toey

I was beaten by a master this weekend. He told that in order to improve chess players should study endgames. I don't understand why I should study endgames. If I can't get through the middlegame or the opening or am I supposed to get to a endgame? Also I bought a endgame studies book and I don't see the point in going over these studies. None of these positions are ever going to happen in any...
