All language subtitles for C.16

hi everyone this is Grandmaster Eugene Perelshteyn

and together with Chess lecture.com

I'd like to welcome you to lecture No. 3 of lecture

called ideas in Bogie India

now Boga Indian is after d 4

knight of 6

c 4 e 6

knight of 3 Bishop b 4 check

now this is the recommended opening in my recent book

Chess Openings for Black Explained

co authored by grandmasters Albert and Ginger Hashville

and in the first lecture we covered Bishop d 2

Queen e 7

G 3

Knight c 6

Bishop g 2 variation

in the second lecture I went over the Knight c 3 move

so after G3

night C6 night C3 move

and in today's lecture I wanna cover

Knight B D2

now night b d 2 the main idea of this move

is to get a bishop pair for white

so White's plan is to play a three

kick out the dark square bishop

black will probably have to recapture on d 2

and then the white will obtain the bishop pair

so let's see what black can do

the recommended move in this line is to play b six

with a simple idea to fianchetto

our light square bishop so white plays a three

and now we take on D2 because if we retreat to E7

then white can take over the center with E4

so that's why we take on D2

and now white has two choices to recapture on d 2

one is queen takes d two

and this is what we're gonna look at first

and the second one is Bishop takes d 2

so let's take it queen d 2 first

we play Bishop b 7

and now white typically develops via e three

black castles

and now usually bishop e 2 is the move

and now we simply develop our

our knight on b 8 by playing d six

castles for example knight b d 7

and white usually develops his dark

square bishop on b 2 so either b 4 or b three

so night e 4 attacking the queen queen c two

Queen e 7

we should beat you and F five

this is the typical position that we're aiming for

in the queen takes d 2 line

so white does have the bishop pair

but black really has no weaknesses

has a very powerful bishop on b 7

and notice

the most important piece is denied on e four

we have a very good outpost on e 4 and after f 5

we secure the knight and prepare the rook lift via f 6

and possibly g 6 or h 6 to play on the king side

now in addition to rook f 6 Rook g 6

Black has a couple of other different plans

so for example

to try to meet white on the queen side with c five

or sometimes if white plays d 5

Black will try to close the center with e 5 so again

this is very flexible position

black has no weaknesses and very simple plan

so let's go back

and see what happens after bishop takes d 2

instead of queen takes d two

now here you have to be more careful

and the right move here is not to play Bishop b 7

but to play h six

h 6 is the key move and let me explain to you why

if you play bishop b 7 after bishop g 5

this is really unpleasant pin

because you don't have the dark square bishop

and the only way to break this pin in the future

is to try to play h 6 and after bishop h 4 g five

which will really weaken up your king side

where you typically castle in these types of positions

so that's why I don't like to play Bishop b 7

and we recommend to play h six

now after h 6

White can choose among three different ways to develop

bishop f 4 is one way

another way is to fianchetto the light square bishop

by playing g three

and the third way is to play E3 with similar ideas

as in Queen takes the two line

so let's take a look at those moves in order

so bishop f 4 the move that makes the most sense

preparing e 3 and developing his dark square bishop

and now we simply play bishop b seven

e 3

d 6 and now usually white

plays either bishop e 2 or bishop d 3

and now the key move here is knight h five

again we wanna trap this bishop

exchange the knight for the bishop

and have a very simple and easy game so for example

bishop g 3 knight takes g 3 H takes G

and simply knight B night d seven

again this position black has no problems at all

no weaknesses

the only thing you gotta watch out for is

don't castle until white castled

so what I mean by that is if White Castle short

you castle short

but if white is ready to castle long

you also wanna try to castle long after Queen E7

so this is the only thing you have to know

that you wanna castle on the same side as white

so white is not gonna have the powerful attack

on the king side

so no problems at all

and let's go back and take a look at the fan

shadow line

g 3

now we play Bishop B 7

Bishop G 2

now castles or d 6

as a matter of principle or preference

sometimes you can play bishop e 4 first

but basically

the position that we're trying to achieve here is d 6

for example castles castles

b 4 Knight b d 7 Bishop c 3

trying to put the bishop on an active diagonal

and the key move here is bishop e four

and the reason why play bishop e 4

so that white will not have an option of playing d 5

sacking the pawn it's very typical plan to play d 5

and temporarily sacrifice that pawn

but we wanna play Bishop e 4

we could have played actually much earlier

but typically this is the type of position

black is trying to achieve

again it's really hard for white to create anything

in the center if he plays knight e 1

the exchange of light square

Bishop is simply good for black

the other plan for white here is to try to play rook

e 1

followed by bishop f 1

Knight d 2 and e four to house the bishop that way

but in the meantime

black can set up his light square pawns on a 6 and b 5

and can actually play queen c 8

queen b 7 if he wants to protect his bishop

so for example a 6

followed by b 5 is a typical idea

to try to gain the d 5 outpost

and another idea to secure the light square bishop is

queen c 8

followed by queen b seven

again very good position for black

so let's go back and take a look at E3

move instead of G3

and let's try to analyze this position

so for example Bishop B 7

Bishop d three

again we can try to play night e four

and try to play in the similar plan as after Queen C2

but I really like and the line that we

the line that we recommend the book is D6

and I'm gonna show you shortly the plan so for example

queen C2 good idea E4 take over the center and now C5

again notice how immediately black

try to take advantage

that white is a little bit behind in development

because Bishop on d 2 is not really doing much

supposed to be on b 2 usually so now if white castles

then after Bishop takes f 3

the king

the the king side is gonna be ruined for white

so that's not a good idea and if white plays e 4

this is the key move then we take on d 4

now he takes d 4 and now for example castles

castles

knight b d 2

and notice that we are trying to reach some kind of

hedgehog type of structure

where black doesn't have the dark square bishop

and after f 4

the powerful move here is knight c five

again hitting the e 4 pawn and the bishop on d 3

and after rook a to e 1

we simply play Rook c eight

again it's very hard for white to create any

sorts of threats

e 5 is impossible because knight can get on d 4

uh

Bishop on d 3

can't really move anywhere because of e 4 pawn

and in the meantime black is threatening to play

either knight takes d 3 or a 6 for

by queen c 7 and then powerful d 5 thrust

so black has a lot of active plans

but let's take a look at b 4

just to give you an idea what black can play

so takes Bishop queen takes and now e 5 is a threat

but we have a very good move queen c seven

hit in the c 4 pawn

and now the following forced variation can happen

after night b 5

Queen takes c four

Queen takes c 4

Rook takes c 4

Knight takes pawn

the key move here is Rook d four

put in the double attack on the knight and the bishop

and after knight takes bishop

rook takes d 2 and actually

I prefer black here

because the knight is kind of loose on b 7

and white has really weak pawns on the queen side

and black has control of the d file

and very active rook on d two

so as you see black

is doing really good in these types of hedgehog

structures

where the knights on c 5 hitting the bishop on d 3

so let's go back

take a look at some other choices for white

so for example after c 5

White of course can take on c 5

and after B take C he can play e four

again Castle is not good because Bishop takes f 3

so e 4 taking control over the center

and now the move that I really like is knight c six

knows that we are gonna take over the G4 Outpost

and if white plays B4

then we play E5

so for example castles

castles and again this position

uh both white and black can try to play for advantage

here white has two bishops

but the bishop on d 3 is kind of weak

but the really good plus for black here is the d 4

outpost for the knight

this really creates double H positions

where black has good chances

so if white tries to play b 5

trying to kick off the knight

the knight will play Knight d 4

so white will have to take

and now

we can either take with the c pawn or the e pawn

probably the c pawn is better

preparing another outpost

for our knight on c 5 in the future

and not allowing white to open up lines

because after E takes f 4

e 5 would always be a big threat

so that's why C takes d is best

and again

here I like black because we can play rooksy 8 97

95 and really try to put pressure on the e 4 point

in the future

so this concludes

the Bishop D2 line and with it

it should conclude our lectures

ideas in the Boga Indian so let me go back

to the very beginning

and quickly review the main ideas

of the Boga Indian with you

so after e six night of 3 Bishop b 4

this is the important check again

after night c 3 we transposed to Nimto Indian

which is a different opening

and bishop d 2 is one of the main lines

which usually goes after queen e 7

g 3 96

and again here white has two main continuations

Bishop d two takes night takes

which leads to the following types of position

after castle

castle d 6 e 4

e 5 d 5

knight b 8 where Black's plan is to play a 5

knight a six

and to play on the king side and the queen side

on the king side with possible f 5

and on the queen side with c 6

and the other line

is after night c 3

night c 6 night c 3

here we take on c three Bishop takes and play night e 4

trapping the bishop

and usually the position after rook c one

castles bishop g 2

d 6 followed by knight takes c 3 and e five

and black usually plays again in the

in the king side with f 5 and f 4

creating a powerful pawn chain

or in the queen side with c 6 later on and finally

night B D2 is a bit rare continuation

but yet you have to be prepared

you have to play B6

a 3 Bishop takes d 2 again after queen takes d 2

the plan is bishop b 7 followed by simple development

but the key move here after bishop takes d 2

is h six

in order to prevent the unpleasant pin with bishop g 5

and then the plan is to play Bishop d 7

d 6 Knight B d seven

if white plays g 3 for example

or bishop f 4 and e 3 then we play knight h 5 again

ready to face

various plans for white again

with this lecture

I'd like to finish this series ideas in Bogain

and thank you and I hope to see you all next time

bye bye
