Played this in a game, and won in a tactical “explosion“

checked everywhere and couldn’t find a name for it 

yeah that is a super common opening, called the italian which is very much like the scotch, but they played the anti fried liver which takes all the fun out of the opening

ik it’s the Italian anti fried liver, but it could be a new variation

Opening that is probably invented, but I can't find the name so I named it The Paris Defense.

I named it like that bc e6 against e4 is the French Defense and Paris is the capital of France.

This opening has some French Defense ideas like undermining the center with c5.

North-Indian Defense

This is just like a Benko Gambit with white

This gambit is barely dubious

Just thought of it

I just did a study of amateur games (under 2000) using the awesome database at lichess that lets everyone see what's REALLY happening in chess and not GM babble chess minions parrot with no concept of reality eg. most popular gambits (parrots will scream "unsound") actually tend to perform best, commonly at 7-8% better than 48:4:48 sound BORING bean counting openings when romantics steal all the queens' hearts. look at the stats for king's gambit, blackmar diemer, smith morra, and french wing and alapin diemer. they all destroy the lines GMs and often fritz prefer over the board.

 

i'm going to post a nimzowitsch defense kennedy variation thread using theory from only the lines that perform best in the real world regardless of what stockfish thinks up until at least a full point but sometimes up to 2 or more.

 

i got sidetracked here thinking that's what i'm doing. you can build theory like that, or watching youtube videos and using chess tempo's super handy book trainer to quickly follow video moves (they really need to be better about telling you where you are when backtracking more often than not!) using tempo's tree builder and then train against that. you can make a book in maybe twice the time it takes to watch a 20 minute video and train with it right away. it doesn't work exactly like i want, but now that i have mine set so it quits randomly dropping me into positions and lets me play into them from move 1 every time for memory building.

 

you can make books like that using two websites that both have stockfish. one or both have dragon or houdini, but not leela sadly. i use stockfish for tie breakers and blunder checks. very often the lines it likes perform terrible over the board where humans do the thinking. i really wish there was a junior chess engine online for analysis. that engine doesn't do wishy washy +0.0000013 retreats.

 

hope that solves your chess problems

Hey all, I'm going to try to create my own opening but I'm not sure how to go about it. Is there software where you can look into variations of it or will I have to use pen and paper? ty for any help given.

I bought Chess Openings Wizard (www.bookup.com).

For one opening I used a book I have and I enter the moves of my choice.

For un unknown opening like e.g. 1.f2-f4 I let the engine 'think' and add the proposed move. I play around a bit with moves that look logical to me and enter the best move that Stockfish finds. Afterwards I can 'drill' this opening and, when my opponent has surprised me in a game, I can find a better move, enter it into the software and play that move the next time.

You can automatically compare the games you played on chess.com and lichess.org with your repertoire.

Works nice!

I have been working on a variation in the exchange slav. You can play it just like you play the positional variation of the veresov attack (e3). Here is some variations.
