This topic is aimed at questions you have regarding the Alekhine Defence

If you had problems when playing certain lines of the Alekhine, if you don't know how you should play in certain positions, if you don't know what plans to follow in a variation, or if you have lost a game and don't really know where you went wrong, this is the place to go.

I will try to answer as many questions as possible and if I don't find a satisfying solution or answer, maybe others can help.

So just post positions and variations as well as links to your games here, when you have a question you want to ask.

The only thing you have to be careful about is not to ask questions about games that are still going on, because it is regarded as cheating.

Avatar of vijaykulkarni

If you had played c4 He cannot play Be6. Has to play Nb3

This is a diagram of the trap no an actual game, but I have done this with a time control of 3/0.
