The Pincer Attack Evolution #2

The Pincer Attack Evolution #2 Tube. Duration : 10.45 Mins.


This video explores an opening system I have been working on creating. I call it the Pincer Attack. History of the Pincer Attack: While I was looking up military strategies I came across mention of the Pincer Attack. The general goal of the strategy is to somewhat attack in the center, and flank your opponent on both sides. I came up with a position with white that I felt could accomplish this, and then placed it into Rybka and let it play itself for a series of 3 minute games. The primary result were draws, with occassional wins from black and white. This tells me the structure is solid when considering human play. I am putting this concept out to my subscribers to collaborate on possible lines and ideas around the Pincer Attack opening. The opening structure is similar to the Hippo defence played by black, however, with the extra tempo that white enjoys, the nature and shape of the game is quite different. While the structure itself might not be new, the detailed exploration of it as an opening system for white is.
