What can we learn in this game?
Fianchettos are very tricky. When you see your opponent goes for a fast fianchetto:
- Don't attempt to fianchetto yourself, as he was the faster one and will capitalize on it.
- Try to block off the diagonal with either a pawn defended by a pawn, or a knight defended by something that isn't a pawn
- Take the center, as he used up two tempos and he attacked the center, but didn't occupy it.
Good luck!
There is a very important lesson there:
Don't play b6 when your opponent has a bishop on g2 and can take your rook on a8.
So Hungarian Opening is also good?
