Feb-14-03    Bears092: In something like this, why does white lock in his dark bishop? I prefer to bring it to g5 first... Feb-14-03    Spitecheck: In my humble opinion, especially in the Slav where black has not already played e6, the Bishop to g5 does not pin the knight on f6 or for that matter threaten to exchange it doubling pawns, as black quite often plays Nbd7 anyhows (the self pinning e6 usually follows as well).....in a sense Bg5 is more of a tempo winner for black than it usually is for him in the QGD. The other point is that white must play e3 in the opening either way, thus the bishop will be locked to the king side. Bg5 can aid the pawn going all the way to e4 of course. I like a quote from Karpov in the Master Chess tournament book. He refers to white playing an early e3.."He saves his bishop for the future", it's a positive way of looking at it I guess. I guess Bg5 seals the bishops fate 9 times out of 10, it will be exchanged on the kingside for either a knight or it's rival counterpart on e7. Feb-14-03    refutor: there's two ways of looking at it...1) that the D12 line is inferior to the other lines (which i believe) or 2) you keep your options open by leaving your bishop there...you can either fianchetto or work to get e4 in Feb-16-07    e4Newman: can someone help me with my study of the slav. i've reviewed a number of games by topa, kramnik, vishy, etc... and can't get over the fact that black gives up his well supported d-pawn. i see there are lines where ...dxc4 is delayed or avoided. can someone point me to a player, eco, or game collection without dxc4? or am i barking up the wrong tree? many thanks!!
