Pls excuse...but an opening defence ...its called the Phyric defence ,anyone know where I can learn how to play it,(spelling probably incorrect)

RomyGer

Pirc (pronounce Peerts) Defence : d4 d6 / e4 Nf6 / Nc3 g6 ( mostly followed by Be2 Bg7 )

Pirc Defence Deferred : e4 g6 / d4 Bg7 / Nf3 d6 ( often followed by Nc3 c6 )

Vasja Pirc, Yugoslav Grandmaster, 1907-1980, "a prolific author, remembered for his opening inventions; the Pirc Defence was long regarded as dubious, but became standard play during his lifetime (revived in the 1940s) ".

"Black attempts to close the game and assault the centre with long-range attacks by the pieces".

I know one book : "The Complete Pirc" by John Nunn, 1989, but you will find far more info on the internet now !

Did you mean Philidor by "Phyric" ? I doubt !  Regards !

This is an obsolete posting ,but the Pirc defence is still very relevant ,it and the reti openings are hyper modern defence and attack modes
