Hi everybody,

This is the new group devoted to our study of the modern Ben-Oni in 2014.

My hope is that this project will inspire everybody to try the Ben-Oni in their own games and that we can build a base of knowledge and practice which is adapted to our needs in terms of level of understanding and theory depth.

In other words, we'll write our own Ben-Oni book.

As a reminder, here is what the modern Ben-Oni looks like :

For general information and an historical perspective, I invite you to read the first part of this Wikipedia article. We'll dwell into the specific variations later...

edit (11/01/14): I found this interesting intro by (now GM) Bryan Smith, who is a Ben-Oni player too.
