like I prefer 6.f4 in the Najdorf than 6.Be3, or prefer The KG bishop's gambit
joedvivre, are you kidding. you are obviously just picking a fight. All you do is insult me, and provide no evidence as to why. I think you are the definiton of a troll.

@shep - Nope - you're just simply and obviously wrong...
Explain to me how I'm wrong.
My engine is down right now (my computer broke so I'm using an old one without an engine to just get online), but cxd4 was -0.96 and the best move on my engine, and cxb4 was way lower, even below -0.5. How am I wrong when I have lines and computers to back me up.
I agree with The Gavinator for once - joeydvivdre is a troll who is picking a fight. I am simply and obviously wrong, yet he offers no analysis or evaluation of my line, and offers no lines of his own. Just because he is higher rated he thinks he is right. I played a game recently and played a move better than Polugaevsky - yeah right. You aren't that good man. You may be good, but you aren't that good.
shepi13, I fail to see your point. Your line is both obvious and good for Black, but then only an idiot would play 4.b4.
Apparently you all don't even read what I post. This is about the 5th time I'm saying this, but I agree 4. b4 is busted. It was an aggressive try, and I looked at it only for a few minutes. You all have show it doesn't work. Anyways, I'll put this in the OP too, but for about the 5th time, against c5, I now recommend e3.
joeydvivre, please stop trolling. Why don't you read the original post. I stated that you should only post if you are actually going to give a reason why. Just calling it "stupid" isn't a good reason. Anyways, I just looked, there are two posts involving 4. e3. They were both by jetfighter, the first one openly hung a pawn for white, so it wasn't very good, and the second one showed that 4. e3 actually favored white. So instead of trolling here, please actually give a reason why 4. e3 is "busted".
see no reason why black cnt play ...f6 if 3.Bg5 is played.
joeydvivre, you haven't posted anything with analysis of 4. e3. This just further proves you are a troll, and on here to pick a fight.
You just said that you posted a line that completely busts it...

Sorry - I was gone for a day or so due to computer problems, I probably missed that page. Yes - e3 is a better decision
@shepi13, If it isn't as strong as the QG, then play the QG. The problem with this opening (in my opinion) is that Black equalizes easy, and there is no way for white to put pressure on Black's position. That is why the Watie/Harrison Attack isn't as strong as the QG.

If that's finally the line we are done to with e3, it's not busted. In fact, it is very ordinary. It appears in my database with 137 games. Miladinovic plays it all the time. That was hardly the original discussion and there can be no claim of originality there.
I believe that joeydvivre thought you were refering to this line earlier when he claimed it was busted. We have busted this line, as black at least equalizes.
Actually, I posted at the bottom of the second page that 4. b4 is busted. joeydvivre has yet to post a line that doesn't involve 4 b4, and he didn't begin posting until the 3rd page. Therefore he was posting soley on old news, just to give a reason to try to insult me, and the opening, because he is a TROLLLLL

I actually always play the QG as white, I was just saying that there is nothing inherently wrong with that line. I'm considering learning the catalan, but I probably won't play it that much - using the theory mainly for grunfeld transpositions.
joey, i'm going to type in all caps because it appears you have problems reading
THE E3 LINE I MENTIONED WAS ON MOVE 4!! NOT MOVE 5 OR MOVE 6 OR WHATEVER THE HELL YOU ARE TRYING TO MAKE IT. IF YOU ARE GOING TO POST A LINE, I RECOMMEND 4. E3 AFTER 3...C5!!!
ps.- Nobody has really mentioned the 3...Bf5 line. Could you guys post thoughts on that too?
jetfighter what am I criticizing?
