Bird's Opening - Batavo Polish Attack

.

.

1.f4 Nf6 2.Nf3 g6 3.b4?!

I first came across this opening when I was flipping through Schiller's Unorthodox Chess Openings book. If I recall correctly, Eric said to just take a pawn and smile. I'll have to see though because this opening isn't as bad as it looks. It was brought to my attention recently in The Gambit Gang's group forum on chess.com by a member named Birdbrain. What interested me initially is the fact that its a Bird and Orangatang opening all mixed up. Of course you'll worry about your pawns being all scattered about but it does have some advantages. In a hypermodern way it controls the center from the outside, a Bishop will soon be deployed to b2, and a timely push by the f4 pawn to f5 can create some very interesting positions. This was the reason this line was brought up by Birdbrain. I had initially posted about a crazy/unsound opening that I was using in Blitz games: 1.f4 g6 2.f5?? . In 1 min games this opening gets wild and although I scored well I wanted to see how the computer would defend against it. Of course the computer stuck to sound opening principle and out of 20 some games only 1 was won by white. In response to the Batavo-Polish Attack, Birdbrain suggested f4 Nf6 Nf3 g6 d4 Bg7 c4 0-0 Nc3 d6 f5! . This appears to be a very solid line. I wanted to see what the computer would do against the BPA.

Of course the engines would not move the Knight to d5. They would first develope the Bishop to g7. The white Knight would then come to c3. Seems pretty even to me. See for yourself in the PGNs.

An interesting line. Clyde Nakamura said that he is currently playing this line. As I do not play 1.e4 I will probably not use this line. The games were still interesting to analyse though. I enjoy going over crazy positions. One word of advice that I took from Mr. Nakamura is that he says he likes to change his opening repertoire every 6 months to throw off his opponents. I recently changed up my repertoire online and have had great success. I changed from 1.Nf3 lines to 1.f4 lines. My ususal opponents were definitely caught off guard.

The Computer Rules, Why? Rules 5, 6, & 7

The Computer Rules, Why? - Rule 4
1. "A solid center is FIRST priority."
2. "Trade on your terms, not your opponents".
3. "Protect your pieces with aggressive/attacking pieces."
4. "There is an inbetween move 90% of the time"

Rule #5 - "Keep all pieces safe at ALL times."

Many times the opponent will attack a piece, and in fear of losing a tempo, I leave the piece there where it gets traded off. So the piece was protected and there was no loss in points BUT now your army is missing a major player, be it a pawn or minor piece.... or whatever. While watching the computer I've noticed that it doesn't trade off pieces lightly. If a piece is attacked it simply moves it, and it moves it to a sometimes better position. So although a tempo may be lost, you can gain it back later by more active pieces. Pieces are very important to the computer.

Rule #6 - "Your king is a reliable and ACTIVE piece."

The computer always uses the King when the time comes. It is not scared or worried about an open King. In fact, it seems like the computer just treats the King as a pawn on steroids. It backs up other pieces and craftly moves across the board. Of course I haven't seen the King come out in the early game but once there only a couple of minor pieces left.. the King WILL move.

Rule #7 - "Its OK to give a piece back."

I have seen this many many times. The computer will totally sneak a piece and the score jumps from an almost even -.35 to a 2.10! The computers battle it out and then out of nowhere the computer that is up a point or so will totally Sac a piece for a gain in a different area of the game. Whether it be for tempo, space, initiative, or whatever. The computer seems crazy. This is almost opposite of rule #5. I guess its ok to give a piece back, just when is the real question.

Set back.

Well I guess I reached my 100mb limit with my provider. I can't post any more content for now. Posting up all the games to my engine tournaments was the best part of starting this blog. I loved coming here and just going over the games. It looks like now I'm going to have to cut back a lot of the games and limit each opening to only 5 games. I think you'll get a good overview of the opening. Of course there will still be PGN viewers to make games easier to go over but the whole PGNs will have to be downloaded from the Unorthodox Opening Group at yahoogroups.com (dare I say egroups.com!). Whenever possible I will also try to link you to other great site like Clyde Nakamura's Opening pages at Chessville.com.

I will work on cutting back the content tonight or tomorrow as I have many great openings still to publish. Sorry for the setback.

Polish Defense w/ c4 :: 1.c4 b5??

. .

195 Games w/ 1 1 time control

White wins 98 (50%) Draws 39 (20%) Black wins 58 (30%)

Yeah, don't use this opening. Its kinda like 1.e4 b5, you give up the pawn for virtually nothing. The main idea is rapid development of the c8 Bishop. As you can see in the games, Black doesn't follow up with Bb7 immediately. The Bishop does come out but at a cost, White ends up developing a huge center. It does score 30% but I think most of these are in the endings. I will use this in rapid games 'rarely'.

Engine Notes: Fruit didn't win this time. Sad cause I was beginning to favor it but it does show the power of Rybka. I have Fritz 11 at work now so look forward to some great games. Tournament details looked like this:

White wins 28 (47%) Draws 16 (26%) Black wins 16 (27%)

Inspired by the last tournament I decided to run 1.d4 b5. Black wins are close to 30% and I have been faring well with it in bullet games. Very well actually. Many sneaky traps in the opening. It would be worth it to go through these games or download the PGN and create an opening tree to run in chessbase or Fritz. Definitely a deceptive opening.

I ran a 6 engine tournament and Fruit 2.3.1 came in first. I can't wait to throw this up against Fritz 11. The results were as such:

Polish Defense after Nf3 :: 1.Nf3 b5?

.


.
90 Games w/ 2 1 Time control
White wins 44 (49%) Draws 25 (29%) Black wins 20 (22%)

Again I ran a tournament because I was a bit stumped in a couple of 1 min matches on Chess.com. Although I held off in a few games, the guy still got me a couple of times. The tournament was run so I can see the good defense. I was mistakingly following up b5 w/ e4 and that usually left my pawn structure messed up or some piece running around the board all crazy like. It seems e3 or a kingside fianchetto is the appropriate defense. Suprisingly, the move ...Bb7 wasn't used right away by Black. Well, now I like this defense. It adds some 'flava' to the opening and I can usually throw off the opponent and in some cases win the h1 Rook. Kinda like how the h8 rook can drop in the Orangatang when the beginning is played horribly wrong. Also, since this opening is way below 30% for Black, I'm gonna stick to the good'ol Nf6... for now.


Engine note: So I ran this tournament with a bunch of engines. I downloaded some new ones too and my new favorite 'free' engine is Fruit 2.3.1. That engine is baaaaaad. I haven't squared it off against Fritz 11 because my laptop went out at home and my Fritz cd is stuck inside. I didn't have a chance to bring it to work. Still, Rybka would beat out Fritz a bunch and now Fruit is giving Rybka a run for its money. Naum 2.0 is good but I'd like to see 3.o. Now to the details:

White wins 17 (35%) Draws 7 (14%) Black wins 25 (51%)

.

Now I liked this opening from the very beginning . White gives up the b pawn in order to develope a big center. I enjoy playing the Orangutang in bullet games so I thought this would be nice to add to the repertoire, or maybe find some crazy lines in there. I was disappointed by the wins by White but what I've been learning with a lot of these gambits is that if you win by 30% or more then the opening is very playable. Especially since I'm at a low level I enjoy throwing slightly higher players off by taking them into uncharted waters. I did a big tournament with 10 engines. I was looking into the best free engines. Some are really good. 49 Games in all. The results looked like this:

Jerome Gambit

.

White wins 239 (31%) Draws 76 (10%) Black wins 450 (59%)

The classic bishop sacrifice at f7. I ran a 765 game tournament but am publishing only the white wins here. It seems to be what most people are looking for. I can provide all the games at your request. Suprisingly Rybka was the loser of all the games where White won. Something fishy is going on here. Very unlike Rybka, maybe its book learning was off. Even its score was really bad.

What I have gathered is that in order to win with White in the Jerome Gambit is an extremely active Queen. As I replayed a bunch of these games the Queen was jumping all over the board in the late beginning , early middlegame. I have recently started experimenting with sacs at f7 and f3, so I found a bunch of these games very enjoyable.

Bird's Opening :: Sturm Gambit

PGN Viewer and PGN Download

I was a bit shocked by these numbers. I felt this gambit is very playable for white and I have had great results in 1 min games on chess.com. To be honest though, a bunch of the wins for Black weren't in the opening. Some very strange positions came from this gambit. Think of a cross between the Queen's Gambit Declined and the Bird Formation I posted a few posts back. Very interesting stuff.

I ran the tournament with 4 engines at their max elo. Rybka won over Fritz 11. After getting Fritz 11 I figured it would tear through all these other engines. I figured wrong. Rybka and HIARC still far very well. There were 30 games with a 4 2 time control. All games can be viewed online by click the link at the top. The results were:

Bird’s Opening – Hobb’s Gambit :: 1.f4 g5!?

.

White wins 23 (46%) Draws 11 ( 22%) Black wins 16 (32%)

After running an engine match for From’s Gambit (1.f4 e5!?) I decided to check out Hobb’s Gambit ,(1.f4 g5!?) . Of course this weakens the Kingside but it immediately challenges White and offers dynamic play. Of all the games 2.fxg5 was played and there followed 4 main replies: h6, Nc6, d5, and Bg7.

..h6 – This is the only move that directly attacks the misplaced pawn. The plan is to open up lanes for the rook and develop the bishop to the ideal square at g7. Usually White just ignores this pawn and opts for central control with d4 or e4.

Nc6, d5, and Bg7 – These moves ignore the exiled pawn and opt for central control. A plan that works well throughout the games.

All in all, this opening isn’t all that bad for Black. There are some interesting lines in there. All games can be viewed with the PGN viewer by following the link below and the PGN can be downloaded there as well.

Bird's Opening :: 1.f4 e5

White wins 56 (47%)

Draws 38 (31%)

Black wins 26 (22%)

.

Another reason I was researching the Bird's Opening was because a post in the Unorthodox Opening group on Yahoo. They were discussing From's gambit. I wanted to see if the computer would play the From. It did in some games but the results were varied. As you can see in the stats, White can hold after this gambit. What suprised me the most was that the engines would constantly move the King after a Queen exchange in order to get a Pawn in the center (see rule #1). Even after giving up the right to castle white still has a decent game. Although the position was a bit 'different' I started to see common themes and formations. The King came out often and Black castled Queenside. This was an engine match between Rybka 2.3.1 and HIARC 11.1. Rybka won with : +46 -36 =38 . This is a position that is common in the late opening.

.

White has given up the right to castle and Black has just castled Queenside. Despite the looks of the position, White seems to be better. All 120 games and the PGN can be found below.

f4! :: Bird's Opening

White wins 28 (47%)
Draws 11 (18%)
Black wins 21 (35%)

With the recent release of the book Play...f4!, I decided to research the Bird opening. Although common in certain circles it is still somewhat Unorthodox. Basically you open with moving your King's bishop's pawn to f4! Opening up a weakness but taking a command of the e5 square. After I ran the small tournament (w/adjusted ratings) I found a common theme in most of the opening formations and it looked like this:
.

.

After noticing this formation I tried to achieve this in some rapid games and had some great results. Once I realised what the 'plan' was I quickly overcame my opponents. Suprising what one little thing like a formation can do for your game. Of course I followed sound opening principles like key squares and opening tactics. It was great.

So the tournament went good and I was able to use my recently acquired FRITZ 11. Wow, this program is great, it looks great and runs even better. The results looked like this:

The Computer Rules, Why? - Rule 4

1. "A solid center is FIRST priority."
2. "Trade on your terms, not your opponents".
3. "Protect your pieces with aggressive/attacking pieces."

Rule # 4

"There is an inbetween move 90% of the time"

Another thing that fascinates me about watching the computers play is that they always find the inbetween move. There will be a piece right in front of them and instead of taking it they will check the king or threaten a piece. All the time bettering their position or cramping the enemies, same thing I guess. After they threaten or 'bother' the opponent, then they take the piece. If they have the opportunity for an inbetween move, THEY TAKE IT. I noticed this last night and am now using it in my games. Its a bit harder for me to do it in 1 min games but 5 or more is good. Its kinda like getting more bang for your bills, and I'm a cheap bastard.

AWESOME.

I've been running all my engines at default. So their ratings have been between 1400 and 1900. Which is somewhat interesting because the lower rated engines were fairing pretty well. With this new developement I'm going to run some old tournaments that I'm really interested in. Mainly the Mokele Mbembe and some of the Nh6 tourneys.

The Computer Rules, Why?

.

Now that I've been able to work my Computer Chess Engines pretty effectively, I've been watching many games by the computers and have started to notice some 'rules' that the computer uses. These are probably well known but since I'm a beginner I'm going to write down these rules and continue to add on to it as I watch more and more games.

RULES

1. Despite gambits and suprises in the opening, the computer constantly opts to challenge the center at all times. Even if with another gambit. "A solid center is FIRST priority." A good example of attacking the center instead of destroying a postion is this Senechaud Gambit from the Dutch opening. 1.d4 e6 2.Bf4 f5 3.g4!? fxg4 4.h3 c5!
.

As a patzer I would take the h pawn here and then protect my King. I'd be happy with the destruction of the Kingside and confident I could fend off any attacks. Instead the computer here likes c5! Immediately attacking the center. Of course the enemy protects d4 and then the queen comes out to c6. Black takes a spot in the center and then builds on it. Who says two enemy cities can't share the same wall?

2. "Trade on your terms, not your opponents". When the opponents offer up a trade of pieces, even if it is beneficial to you, make sure it is on your terms. If they move a rook to instigate the trade, if you want to trade, trade but remember you don't have to trade on that square. Move it up to where you capture back with a pawn bringing it toward the center.

.

Not exactly the position I wanted to show. But in the above position the Knight at e6 has captured another Knight and is expecting the trade at e6. Here instead of Qxe6, Qe7+ is played! Moving the King to a more cramped position. after Kg6 then Qxe6. Trading pieces on his terms. There is a tactic here, I forgot the name. But my point is that the computer never compromises. Everything is done on their terms, there is no Synergy. Only a selfish desire to win at all costs.

3. Whenever possible, protect an attacked piece with another piece that will attack an enemy piece once the trade has occured. "Protect your pieces with aggressive/attacking pieces."

.

I created the above postition and it sucks. No white King and the Black bishop is en prise since it is Whites turn to move. Just as an example though, White wishes to protect the Bishop at c5 from capture by the Bishop on f8. He has three options. c4, Rc1, or Ne4. At a quick look of the position and in a quick game I would probably play c4 protecting the bishop or Rook to c1. But as with the 3rd rule the computer would play e4 because if the bishops were traded off then the N at e4 would fork the king and queen! This diagram is messed up and simple but it shows how to protect a piece and to look for tactics even with expected trades.

I will continue to post more rules as I see them.

Unicorn Defense 1.e4 b6 2.d4 Bb7 3. Bd3 f7?

The completely unorthodox gem was dug up from the depths of the Unorthodox Openings Newsletter #18. Black completely ignores the center and in a hypermodern way attacks it from a fianchettoed Queen's bishop. After a Bishop move by White, Black moves the King's Knight pawn up to f7!!?? This of course is the weakest square in the Black camp. This breaks all opening rules and after computer analysis, it would be shown that this defense is totally unsound. Well, suprise suprise, it isn't. After running an 96 1 min game engine tournament with 4 engines it seems the odds aren't 'too' bad. The final score was 60 wins for White, 3 Draws, and 33 wins for Black. Not too shabby for a defense that uses the move f7! Some suprising points to me, being a patzer and all, emerged from these games.

1. The Knights seem to dominate the minor pieces in the wins with black. They dominate until they are traded off. Many fancy sacrifices with the Knights were seen too.

2. f7, although the weak square a lot of times became the base of a pawn chain directly attacking the king side.

3. With a Kingside attack coming the King is either used very aggresively in this attack or is tucked away safely by a Queenside castle. When it is in the attack is usually because it has moved because of the weakness at f7. Which is funny because the weak square forces the King to join in the fight on the Kingside.

4. And a great suprise for me is that the computers often ignore the weak square and instead opt for rapid development and then attack that weak square. By that time though Black has usually build up defenses around that weak square or has prep'd a Queenside castle or Kingside attack.

I was shocked by this opening and then bewildered by its ability to fight for the win. I suggest reading the UON # 18 for the full analysis by a master. The PGN for the games can be found here: unicorn defense.
