1. c4 |
My usual 1. Nf3 has been replaced by this more flexible move in this game. The main reason for the change is that I can reach many of my well studied openings by transposition and at the same time can avoid the Classical Kings Indian, which has built up a ton of theory. Not only that, but by playing either the Saemisch or the Hungarian Attack (as in this game) I am able to generate a kingside attack with the white pieces. Enjoy! |

1... Nf6 |
Black responds with a flexible move of his own. |
| | |
|
2. Nc3 |
Keeping my options open with the king's knight, but also preparing an anti-Grunfeld move order. |
| | |
|
2... g6 |
Black is heading for the KID or the Grunfeld. |
| | |
|
3. e4 |
Here is another benefit to this move order is that it stops your opponents well studied Grunfeld!! |
| | |
|
3... d6 |
White now has the choice of lines. |
| | |
|
4. d4 Bg7 5. Nge2 |
The main move of the Hungarian attack. The knight will go to g3 to protect the e-pawn and white will launch the h-pawn. |

5... O-O 6. Ng3 e5 |
6...c5 is also good and leads to different types of opening positions. |
| | |
|
7. d5 |
White wants to keep the center closed so as to play on the kingside. |
| | |
|
7... a5 |
Black moves to stifle white's queenside ambitions, however, the blow will come from the other wing. |
| | |
|
8. h4 h5 |
Stopping the h-pawn in its tracks, but creating a weakness on the g5-square which white now exploits with... |
| | |
|
9. Bg5 Na6 |
Intending to bring the knight to c5, however, this will not provide any counterplay as the e-pawn is already doubly protected. The better plan is to attack the white center with ...c6 or to play ...Qe8 followed by ...Nh7. |
| | |
|
10. Be2 |
Taking aim at the h5-pawn for a typical Hungarian tactic. |
| | |
|
10... Nc5 11. Bxh5 |
White will now either win a pawn or ramp up pressure on the pinned piece with Nxh5 and Qf3. |
| | |
|
11... gxh5 12. Nxh5 Nxh5 |
Tantamount to resignation. |

Black resigns. Not a very flashy ending, but an interesting idea in an under-rated blitz opening. |
