	Tarrasch Defense - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Tarrasch Defense is a chess opening characterized by the opening moves 1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 c5, although White often plays 3.Nf3 on his third move instead, following up with Nc3 soon afterwards.
		The Tarrasch is a variation of the Queen's Gambit Declined.
		When White plays against the Tarrasch, the most common setup is to fianchetto his king's bishop in order to put pressure on fls isolated d5-pawn.

	The chess games of Siegbert Tarrasch
		Siegbert Tarrasch was born in Breslau, Germany on March 5, 1862.
		Despite this loss, Tarrasch was held in high regard throughout his career for his contributions to opening theory.
		Retrospectively it was a tragic mistake of Tarrasch that he was not as bold as young Lasker to challenge Steinitz in 1892 or 1893 but nobody expected then that Lasker (with great talent and some nice victories in matches but without any success in any strong international tournament) could have successfully challenge Steinitz.

	The French: Tarrasch and Other Lines
		This book completes the coverage of the French Defense that was begun by Pedersen in the companion volume The Main Line French: 3 Nc3.
		It is essential reading for all those who play the French, and for those who meet it with the popular Tarrasch, the aggressive Advance, the quiet Exchange, or one of the rarer side-variations.
		The Tarrasch Variation provides a stern test for the French Defense, and has always been a favorite of strategically minded players, such as Michael Adams and Anatoly Karpov.

		Last few games I have experimented with the Tarrasch defense and although Black dooes not do terrifically wel if you look at game statsl, the positions are rich for a fun filled middle game tussle.
		The Tarrasch is not well known by a lot of people and they seemed to be afraid of tricks when exchanging the pawns in an early stage.
		However if you want to play the Tarrasch, you must be an aggresive player, by just defending you will lose the isolated pawn.

		Last year, the Tarrasch Defense had what would have been a revival if it had ever enjoyed widespread popularity before.
		But it never did, Siegbert Tarrasch being the only standard-bearer of his invention.
		The new world junior champion (under 21), the grandmaster Levon Aronian of Armenia, used Tarrasch's old recipe, the ancient Symmetrical Variation, with which to confront successfully the Tarrasch that Dmitrij Jakovenko of Russia used in the 13th round of the title tournament for players under 21 in Panaji, Goa, India, Dec. 8 to 21.

		I do like the Queen's Gambit Accepted, the Tarrasch Defense, or the Catalan for White so my move is a rather obvious choice.
		The philosophy behind this is that the white bishop on d2 is not well-placed.
		Since the key to successful defense is anticipation Wchess should have done something about that.
