Recently I have seen 2 really well played games from the black side against the London System.
Both players really made it look so easy for black.
Nesterov was playing the Junior world championship, and is a 20 year old GM rated around 2550.
Hayk Martirosyan is just crossed 2700 with the win against the London.
In both cases the players chose this position:
While Nesterov played the very interesting 5...Nh5, Martirosyan chose a slightly less spectacular approach with 5...cxd4.
I have made 2 videos about the games. Looking forward to your feedback.
Nesterov's Nh5:
Martirosyan's cxd4
