anyone else? im particularly interested in playing the white sideof the botvinnik (anti-meran) 5.Bg5 dxc4 at the moment

Thanks amer. I sent you four challenges one in each variation. Feel free not to accept all of them. The marshall and geller arn't all that well known so here are the moves just incase: marshall= 1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.nc3 e6 4.e4 dxe4 5.nxe4 bb4+ 6.bd2 Qxd4, the geller you probably know but just incase: 1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.nc3 nf6 4.nf3 dxc4 5.e4

Sure Fear_Itself, I am game. Please send me a challenge (1 move per 3 days), your choice of variation.

anyone here want to play some games (me as white) in either the geller, botvinnik, anti moscow or marshall variations of the slav/semi? either reply here, in a message or send me an unrated game invite with the title as the variation. thanks.

really nice book, I agree. The only things that bother's me is that there is so little on the 3. Nc3 dxc4 variaton. The a6 move isn't really my cup of tea, but in 70% on my Slav games white employs the 3.Nc3 move order

I've been studying that book also - a lot to learn, but it's presented in an easy to understand manner.

Move by move Slav is really good for getting familiar for Slav play. Useful even for white!
