Dudley's Colle System Classics (Koltanowski c3)
Compiled by fredthebear
--*--

This collection was compiled by Dudley. Thank you Dudley! Fredthebear has randomly added approximately 80 games featuring d4, Bd3 below Dudley's original collection. (White must have a plan against the Indian defenses!)

Dudley wrote: The Colle system has been described as the easiest good opening system to learn for white. It allows white to develop his pieces behind a wall of pawns before initiating action and avoids several black defenses. The system is not forcing and does not put the opposing player under a great amount of pressure, but has a deceptive sting that will surprise many opponents. Essentially, it is a Semi-Slav defense "reversed", and the extra tempo gives White attacking possibilities not usually seen from the black side. However, if white doesn't win in the opening or middle game, he often will have a pawn majority of 3-2 on the Q side which can be a winning ending. The opening is not regarded as challenging enough for GM level chess, but for club players it is still viable and is a good introduction to QP openings. This is the one of the earliest and most successful "program" openings, and is very solid and sound.

* FTB suggests the learner pay heed in the opening phase to the various central pawn advances and exchanges (captures and recaptures) that occur, particularly in D02 & D04 games. These pawn skeleton differences allow different types of piece activity later on. Seize and make use of open lines with your long range pieces! Thus, the middlegame plan depends upon which pawns have been advanced and exchanged in the opening phase. (The Colle 5.c3 Koltanowski Variation prepares a slow advanced of the e-pawn from e2-e3-e4-e5, but sometimes e3xd4 is played.)

* Game Collection: Checkmate: Checkmate Patterns

This link has a good, concise collection of diagrammed checkmate patterns by name. The new reader may wish to consult it initially to the point of memorization.

The Wolf and the Dog

A prowling wolf, whose shaggy skin
(So strict the watch of dogs had been)
Hid little but his bones,
Once met a mastiff dog astray.
A prouder, fatter, sleeker Tray,
No human mortal owns.
Sir Wolf in famished plight,
Would fain have made a ration
On his fat relation;
But then he first must fight;
And well the dog seemed able
To save from wolfish table
His carcass snug and tight.
So, then, in civil conversation
The wolf expressed his admiration
Of Tray's fine case. Said Tray, politely,
"Yourself, good sir, may be as sightly;
Quit but the woods, advised by me.
For all your fellows here, I see,
Are shabby wretches, lean and gaunt,
Belike to die of haggard want.
With such a pack, of course it follows,
One fights for every bit he swallows.
Come, then, with me, and share
On equal terms our princely fare."
"But what with you
Has one to do?"
Inquires the wolf. "Light work indeed,"
Replies the dog; "you only need
To bark a little now and then,
To chase off duns and beggar men,
To fawn on friends that come or go forth,
Your master please, and so forth;
For which you have to eat
All sorts of well-cooked meat –
Cold pullets, pigeons, savoury messes –
Besides unnumbered fond caresses."
The wolf, by force of appetite,
Accepts the terms outright,
Tears glistening in his eyes.
But faring on, he spies
A galled spot on the mastiff's neck.
"What's that?" he cries. "O, nothing but a speck." "A speck?" "Ay, ay; It's not enough to pain me;
Perhaps the collar's mark by which they chain me." "Chain! chain you! What! run you not, then,
Just where you please, and when?"
"Not always, sir; but what of that?"
"Enough for me, to spoil your fat!
It ought to be a precious price
Which could to servile chains entice;
For me, I'll shun them while I have wit."
So ran Sir Wolf, and runs yet.
