Nimzo-Indian: Help!!!

I am having an extremely hard time facing the nimzo-indian.

Please! Help!!

So does everybody .. it is considered one of the best defences against d4. There is no refutation and not even a sure way to get advtange.

It is not for no reason that many people play Nf3 to enter the queen indian

Nf3 is genneraly considered better for simpler play

can you show me it?

k. Sorry but could you go deeper into the line?

ya that's what i thought but who knows? I guess.

Why did you do a 16 move puzzle instead of a game diagram?

Rubinstein Variation was named after the great Arthur Rubinstein.

lol

I dont understand why Black goes d5-c5 in Rubinstein variation.. It helps white undouble his pawns and allows him to open the position where the two bishops will be a advantage.. I think black is better with something like this

With a colle-zukertort type position with colours reversed

thanks. I think i will go with the rubenstein. But why can't black just take on d5 with the knight. tacticasacting 123

sorry but how

no I meant move 14. Oh wait I think I see it. Is it ng5 that does the trick?

ya sorry for bothering. I think the rubenstein is my new opening

Здравствуйте друзья. Всем  привет из Сибири, города Иркутска.

The Samisch variation of the Nimzo-Indian defense is 1.d5 Nf6 2.c5 e6 3.Nc3 Bb4 4.a3. 

IMHO the Saemisch variation is not the way to go against the Nimzo. Black gets a lot of play against the c4 pawn. Btw, here is a standard line in the Saemisch, for those who wonder what it is :

Either the Capablanca (4.Qc2) or the Rubinstein (4.e3) look better tries to me.

I try to go for a position like this:

I'm not saying this is best play from both sides, I'm just showing the type of position to go into.

OF course, I play e4 :P

@ Dabigone : without even book knowledge, 7...cxd4 ? in your line is a big mistake : why allow White to get rid of his doubled pawns ? Better the plan ...b6, ...Nb8-c6-a5 and ...Ba6.

BTW, I strongly recommend Reinaldo Vera's Chess explained : the Nimzo-Indian to anyone who really wants to study that opening. It's reader-friendly (unlike other books from the chess explained series) and complete (as far as <2100 opening knowledge is concerned at least).

Dabigone, I see your point. However like irontiger said, I dont think black will just let you go into a good position like that. I think I'll just go with the rubinstein. And irontiger, do you think the rubinstein is good?
