The Monthly Dragon - The Modern Line 9.0-0-0 d5

🔽🔽🔽 THE MONTHLY DRAGON INFORMATION 🔽🔽🔽 The first Monthly Dragon in 2023 is ready, and our Dragon aficionado GM Chris Ward found some interesting games in the Yugoslav attack for us. This month we take a look at 9. 0-0-0 d5 where White ignores the central pawn tension and instead immediately swaps knights on c6 and then seeks to trade off the Dragon bishop via Bh6. This ultra-direct approach with a swift h-file assault in mind has been around for decades but has recently come back into fashion. Needless to say it’s far from one-way traffic though as Black certainly has his own attacking aspirations in another no-holds-barred encounter of thrills and spills! ⏩ The article on our ChessBase news page: https://en.chessbase.com/post/108009 Did you like the video?
