Hi there in this picture, we're going to see a very, very interesting opening or system in that you
can play this.
The first few moves largely independent of the opponent's moves and Powell, Benko really had great
success with this novel first move, Jeoffrey, and it became sometimes known as the house opening.
But it's also got other names, the Kings fan chapter opening, the Hungarian, opening the box opening,
the public opening.
Some other players have also made use of it.
So sometimes in opening names, there's good points for you to check out.
The games of those players by Pau Banco used that to defeat both Fisher and Tau in the 1962 Kansas,
Thomas Curacao.
So Benko versus Fisher, I'm going to show you.
So Fisher played by Bishop Jita.
So you think cazzo and then you play for you don't move this night.
This is a key feature.
You don't move that night yet.
You, in fact, leave the bishop to have scope.
He played the if you get the chance like this and you put the night on E to and from this possession,
you know, this is we're following now Benko against Fisher.
So it's a very, very nice example.
In 1962, White does have a pleasant possession and the theoretical burden is minimal, as you might
expect.
If you can get this position.
This is like opening principles anyway.
Try and get a duo of pawns in the center.
It reflects key opening principles.
But we're supporting central control.
We're having Catoe.
So it is logical in terms of opening principles and here why it plays a five we have 884 1994 95, which
is trying to put pressure on this Eappen age free rookie aide.
And we have Ruki one night after 7:00, Bishop Infrequency seven.
I like to sometimes show you a clear game example because it shows the opening and and, you know,
opening ENTYVIO game into Endgame.
And here in the mental game, we can see, for example, we have a certain structure which is very,
very pleasing, potentially this kind of backward pawn.
It's a weak pawn because it has dependencies of pieces to have to defend it later Tanzanians rather
than fellow pawns.
So if you can get this, this is a good sign, you know, this backward desex pawn and Benko puts,
you know, a lot of pressure in the center.
And dislodges now that key central neutze, one of the more advanced pieces in the position.
So phishers, pretty passive, but now a key position to move B5.
And it looks as I once got an amazing position now weakening the lights as undermining black on the
white squares, we have 1964.
If C5, then 96 is a very nice move for us, all this possession, 95, and you know, we're winning
the queen.
The queen has been checkmated, as brutal as that, as a variation against Bobby Fisher.
You know, less than 20, that's a brutal violation.
So we have 964 instead from Fisher.
Bishop, thanks.
So bishops come off, see five Queen detA and still there's the backwood pawn.
So this is like, you know, linkage to a middle game plan.
Rook 81, rookie 65, not minding the bishops coming off there.
And there's persistent pressure on this.
Diffa and Y actually wins the desex pawn and simplifies.
Now, when you're up in material, you want to exchange pieces, not pawns.
So exchanging works helps White's cause to simplify the position and try and get the queens off to further
simplify the position where a pawn up we want to simplify even against legendary Bobby Fischer, or
rather especially against the very resourceful Bobby Fischer.
We want to exchange pieces where movements up like even a pawn because a pawn can win the game eventually.
So Ninety-four trying to exchange more pieces.
So this is really going in its favor.
All the simplification.
And the wonderful thing here is the pawn is immune to capture.
We have these seven.
You might wonder why is that?
Kings Cross.
I will show you if Rook takes Desex.
Guess what we can play here if I give you five seconds.
Pause Viniar.
OK, we can pin that rock, it's sometimes very nice if the opponent gives us these pens, even a relative
pin is actually rather painful here.
There's no backfire.
The queen is supported by the pawn, thankfully.
So, you know, if you're looking for a backfire against pennies, sometimes there's no backfire.
We can just take here.
So black is actually just losing material, you know, losing a whole Rockfeller.
And, you know, if King is seven, then there's actually Queen G7 Jack.
And this just gets nasty, you know, for example, here, it just gets nasty, eventually will take
and then take her.
So it's immune essentially in a nutshell that that person is immune.
So we have fish playing Routley, seven Queens, CSX, and this is a very, very difficult position
for black with that pawn stuck there on the.
So here this is a bit of a desperate ploy by Fisher for potential counterplay, but they'll have one
further simplifying.
This is a great game actually, from the point of view, acidifying to win, just a pawn up.
Very, very great game.
And even though Adres lost, the queen comes back to try and simplify.
And again, eventually the game and the Tower of the Queen, a tree check if the game played out, you
know, once got these very, very dangerous pawns of the game played out here with their queen due to
the them, white can play like this technically to evade the checks eventually and start pushing the
pawns.
Yeah, there is a there is a bit of work to do, but eventually the pawns start to get pushed decisively
by the game.
Actually ended with Queen Retrack.
So when we look at, I think opening with an example game, we do get hints at the middle game potential
and we see that with this thing.
Catoe if the opponent does play in such a manner to kind of relieve the central tension, that's kind
of kind of relieving the central tension.
And they do leave themselves with potentially back reporting, it seems, you know, tactically we can
try and pressure that nature and win that.
And you simplify tactics like in this game.
So we've got a nice template there as well.
Just one example game.
But ideally, you want to arm itself with lots of model games to back up any opening or system choice.
You should have an idea of general middle game plans, not just, you know, an initial opening sequence.
So but the Banquo's Benko system characteristic is that we're placing value in this Fankhauser more,
placing value in not blunting the scope of the best that we're putting on night on two as a priority.
OK, so it's an interesting system in your own games, and you might want to check out games of Benko,
let him be your pal on this occasion.
OK, and so much.
