Humpy wins, forces tie-break - Deccan Herald It was a Bogo-Indian defence that gave Humpy, playing white, a tangible advantage and slowly she started exerting pressure on the queenside after trading the queens in the early opening. The wily Indian soon co-ordinated her pieces and easily won a second pawn that was part of the erroneous package offered by Kovaevskaya. After squandering a winning chance in the first game, the Indian was back to her basics and played the do-or-die second game with absolute concentration. www.deccanherald.com /deccanherald/Jun022004/sp6.asp   (460 words)

The Tribune, Chandigarh, India - Sport Starting with bogo Indian defence the position became closed right after the opening moves and the players reverted to manoeuvring their pieces to the best squares. The Indians had practice sessions in the morning and evening, and with the arrival of Leander, there is a new “thrust” to their work-outs.

Daily Excelsior.........state Former manager of the Indian cricket team Ajit Wadekar has said the code of conduct which he had introduced during his tenure for the Indian team should be enforced by the BCCI in the aftermath of the match-fixing episode. This might help Indian cricket and its followers to repose their faith once again in the fairness of the game which has taken a sound beating at the moment, he added.

pkeres.txt 3 Nf3 In many games my opponents played 3 Bd2 to which I usually replied 3...Qe7, transposing into positions similar to the Bogo-Indian Defence. The idea of this order of moves is that after 3 Nc3, Black, in addition to the Nimzo-Indian Defence 3...Nf6, can also choose to transpose into the Dutch Defence by means of 3...f5, a defence in which the early development of White's bl-knight is not held to be the best. White cannot any longer hope to organise a satisfactory defence since his scattered pieces are entirely lacking in co-ordination. www.chesscafe.com /text/pkeres.txt   (1628 words)

White has three viable choices to meet the check: 4.Bd2 is the most common, 4.Nc3 is a transposition to the Nimzo-Indian while 4.Nbd2 is an alternative aiming to acquire the bishop for the knight or forcing black's bishop to retreat. This opening is not so popular as the Queen's Indian, but is occasionally seen at all levels. www.reference.com /browse/wiki/Bogo-Indian_Defence   (197 words)
