Grape System Expolored

Lecture on 10 April 2013 …. “Grape System” Explored

 

Game/system taught at the Dayton Chess Club on April 10th, 2013.  G/15, names removed.  Game commentary and analysis by:  M. Kellie and William Sedlar

1.  Tramadol Order Overnight Shipping d3      Is this a playable first move?  Or is it “dubious”?  !?  Answer, the move has pros and cons as do most moves in this game,…think for yourself on the value of each and every move!  [W. Sedlar] “d3 is called the Mieses Opening.  It is considered an unorthodox opening, under the A00 code for chess openings.  White’s C1 bishop is opened up”.

2.  https://wasmorg.com/2024/03/07/vrbk3d6gf8 Nd2  …what is this?  Is this move good or bad?  This second move is the signature start of a system developed by this commentator over the last six years or so which I call the “Grape” system; which, can be played against ANY opening or defense and from either the White or Black side of the board.

4.  https://fotballsonen.com/2024/03/07/bw84k4fh30o Bg2   c6             Pros and cons to Black’s last move…what are they?  Pros:  Move supports the d5 center pawn while impeding White’s bishop on g2.  Opens the c7 – a5 diagonal for Black’s queen and supports possible future queenside expansion with moves like b5, a5 etc.  Cons:  Black’s queen knight cannot be placed on c6.  Develops a pawn in the opening stage instead of a minor/major power piece; hence, White now has two minor pieces developed against only one for Black.  For example, had Black played Nf6, minor piece development in the opening stage would be equal (=).

5.  https://giannifava.org/5zoxeqzcev e4                        White now strikes formally at the “center”         … https://www.mominleggings.com/2itv8q3gq e5

6.  Ne2                    Why place the king knight here instead of f3?  Answer:  Move prepares future “f” pawn push while covering (protecting the king) and, giving alternative options for knight operations in future!

Position look:  Black controls/contests four center squares and so does white; additionally, white has minor piece development lead (3 to 1)

6.   … https://www.jamesramsden.com/2024/03/07/eelcs9s4 Nf6                Both sides can now castle (=)

7.  Tramadol Ordering O-O   O-O

8.  https://worthcompare.com/3wjjhegkz h3                        Why move this pawn?  This move does two main things, it keeps a bishop or knight from g4 but more importantly, prepares or gives the white king more movement options (i.e.- h2)  One drawback of the move is it loosens the kingside position and does not develop a minor/major piece in the opening stages of the game which allows/gives black development options to catch up or exceed White’s development.

8.  … Order Tramadol Online Uk Be6                Black now catches up with minor piece development.

9.  https://elisabethbell.com/rx937rh0 f4!                       Position has now become a reversed Mar Del Plata variation of the King’s Indian!

9.  … https://www.worldhumorawards.org/uncategorized/s8afq36jctm Nh5                A commonly played idea in this type of position.  Pros:  Moves a knight to attack two pawns instead of one.  Opens the bishop on g7 towards the center and prepares a f6 or f5 counter.  Move also opens the d8 to h4 diagonal for black’s queen.  Cons:  Places a knight on rim and away from the center (“knights on rim are grim” – a chess axiom)  [W. Sedlar] …”Nh5  This allows white for a push towards the kingside and the knight on h5 being in an awkward position.  In many of these types of positions, Nh5 is allowable, but it seems in this set up, it is more deficient than effective”.

10.  https://worthcompare.com/x9alioz2b Nf3                   The ‘spring’ potential or hidden energy of white’s positions now begins…I think of these type of positions as if of a coiled snake, …about to strike!  Notice also the Nf3 move here moves toward the object of the game of chess…the enemy king!  [W.Sedlar] “Nf3 … Another possible continuation in this type of set up is 10. f5  A reason for f5 in this position is to press on forward to gain more space.  An example of the spatial dominance can be found in an example variation.  10 f5 Bc8 11.g4 Nf6 12. g5 Nh5 13. f6 Bh8.  In this position, black is more ‘cramped’…”

10.  … Tramadol Online Germany exf4            Pros:  Attacks the white king bank while opening the bishop on g7 diagonal.  Cons:  Does not develop a minor/major piece in the opening stages of game.  Opens whites offensive options; i.e.- Bxf4, Nxf4, even gxf4…

11.  https://www.lcclub.co.uk/5h62fu8cdh gxf4?!             Pros:  White dominates e5 and g5 and now has a semi open “g” file (for future offensive plans)  Cons:  Moves a pawn toward enemy king instead of a minor/major piece.  The black knight on h5 has an decent post as a pawn can no longer dislodge it.

15.  Ng5  Bc4       [W.Sedlar] “Ng5 was played.  Again, in this type of situation, e5 is a possible type of idea.  Again, this reinforces spatial gain and momentum in the center with this thrust.”

16.  https://asperformance.com/uncategorized/sc30lj4 Bf3 Tramadol 50Mg Buy Online Uk Ndf6  [W.Sedlar] ” Bf3… in this position, black does not notice that whites g5 knight has lack of room.  h6 traps the knight in the situation.”

17.  e5  Nd5         White is behind in development yet, has powerful initiative and attacking potential! [W.Sedlar] ” e5  White grabs the opportunity to play e5, but, in this situation, gains a tempo because the knight is on f6.”
