X0 ***Theory*** - The Reti Opening is the most famous example of Chameleon Opening (CHOP:), we mean it is a particularly flexible move allowing to transpose in a great number of different beginnings.

1.Nf3 X1

[ Now consider just a moment the opening: 1.e4 X2 e6 X3 2.d4 X4 d5 X5 3.Nd2 X6 Nf6 X7 4.e5 X8 Nfd7 X9 5.Bd3 X10 c5 X11 6.c3 X12 Nc6 X13 7.Ne2 X14 cxd4 X15 8.cxd4 X16 We recognize the French, Tarrasch Closed Variation (FTCV:). This is a C06-Quasi Pure Opening (QPOP:), mixed with some C05. ]

1...Nf6 X17

Chameleon Opening (CHOP:).

2.d4 X18 c5

The typical start of the Old Benoni Defense (OBD:) constituting the Tarrasch Lever (TAL:) d4-c5.

X19 Nevertheless this beginning is a typical Chameleon Opening (CHOP:). Thus after only a partial investigation we find the following openings, according to the ECO classification: A04, A30, A31, A32, A33, A34, A35, A38, A39, A43, A44, A46, A47, A48, A49, A56 to A64, A69 to A79, B13, B14, B22, B28, B36, B37, B38, B39, B41, B44, B54, B70, C05, C06, D00, D02, D03, D04, D05, D06, D13, D14, D15, D28, D30, D32, D34, D40, D41, D50, D73, D77, D79, D90, D94, D99, E01, E04, E10, E12, E14, E20, E23, E54, E60, E61, E64, E65, E66, E79, E90, E91, E92 and some others!... It is impressive!... Isn' t it true?

[ Many continuations may be envisaged like: 2...e6 X20 3.e3 X21 b6 X22 4.Bd3 X23 Bb7 X24 5.Nbd2 X25 c5 X26 6.0-0 X27 Nc6 X28 7.c3 X29 Be7 X30 8.Ne5 X31 d6 X32 9.Nxc6 X33 Bxc6 X34 10.Qe2 X35 e5 X36 11.e4 X37 0-0 X38 12.d5 X39 Bd7 X40 13.c4 X41 Qc8 X42 14.f3 X43 Nh5 X44 15.g3 X45 g6= X46 Hallegua, B - Alekhine, Alexander A47 (25) 0-1, Paris exh, 1914.]

3.d5 X47

[ Let us interest this time in the game Ambelang, Harald - Hofsteller, Hans Joachim C06 (24) 0-1, Bundeswehr-ch, 1988, which continues like this: 3.c3 X48 e6 X49 4.Nbd2 X50 Nc6 X51 5.e4 X52 d5 X53 6.e5 X54 Nd7 X55 7.Bd3 X56 Qb6 X57 8.dxc5 X58 Nxc5 One recognizes there immediately a French, Tarrasch Closed Variation; in our opinion C05 and no C06, sorry for ChessBase. But there is not the question.

X59 In this typical example you may observe a Reti System, suddenly similar to an Old Benoni Defense, before becoming a French, Tarrasch, Closed Variation... This way the concept of Chameleon Opening seems rather clear. ]

3...g6 X60

This play line is a Strongly Mixed Opening (SMOP:); we do not judge necessary to enter here in more details.

4.Nc3 X61

One attains an A43-Quasi-Pure Opening (QPOP:), mixed only with a few number of A48.

4...Bg7 X62

Finally we reach here a A43-Totally Pure Opening (TPOP:); in other words all games coming in this position is undoubtely a A43-Opening.

5.e4 X63 0-0 X64 6.a4 X65 d6 X66

Hence is constituted the King Air Lock (KIAL:) e4-d6, in this typical pawn-structure of the Old Benoni.

7.Be2 X67

ECB (ECO Codes Base) Classification: [A43-m**]

7...Na6 X68

With the idea: Nc7 or Nb4.

8.Bf4 X69

White double control of the Critical Point (CRPT:) e5.

8...Nb4! X70 +/=

White has only a few advantage.

9.0-0 X71

White Castle on the Kingside is the end of the Thematic Middle Game (THMG:)

9...Nh5 X72

This way begins the Deep Middle Game (DEMG:).

10.Be3 X73 b6 X74 11.Nd2 X75 e6 X76

The Korchnoi Lever (KOLV:) d5-e6

12.Nc4 X77

This configuration gives an example of Pawn Figure Complex (PFC:).

12...exd5 X78 13.Nxd5 X79 Nxd5 X80 14.Qxd5 X81 Be6 X82 15.Qxd6!? X83 Qxd6 X84 16.Nxd6 X85 Bxb2 X86 17.Rad1 X87

All this combination leads to a Shapeless Pawn Structure (SPST:).

17...Nf6 X88 18.f3 X89

[ More active is: 18.Bf4 X90 ]

18...Rfd8 X91 19.Nb5 X92 Bd7 X93 20.Rb1 X94 Be5 X95 21.Rfd1 X96 Ne8 X97 22.f4! X98 +/-

A Constraining Move (COTM:). With a good coordination of all his pieces White has a significant advantage.

22...Bxb5 X99 23.Bxb5 X100 Bc7 X101

Now White has the Pair of Bishops and always a positional advantage.

24.e5! X102

The White Candidate Pawn (WCAP:).

24...Ng7 X103 25.Bc6 X104 Rab8 X105 26.c4! X106

Hence the Queenside Black Majority (QBM:) is paralysed.

26...Nf5 X107 27.Kf2 X108

This time begins the Pre-Endgame (PENG:).

27...Nxe3 X109 28.Kxe3 X110 Kf8 X111 29.Rd3 X112 a6 X113 30.Ke4 X114 Rdc8 X115 31.Bd7 X116 Rd8 X117 32.g4! X118 Ke7 X119 33.Rbd1 X120 Kf8 X121 34.Bc6 X122

White has a perfect mastery of all this endgame.

34...Rdc8?? X123

[ More accurate is: 34...Rxd3 X124 35.Rxd3 X125 +/-]

35.Bd7? X126

[ The right continuation is: 35.Rd7! X127 Bxe5 X128 36.fxe5 X129 Rxc6 X130 37.Rf1 X131 f6 X132 38.Kd5 X133 Rbc8 X134 39.e6 X135 +- and White wins easily.]

35...Rd8 X136 36.h4 X137 Kg7 X138 37.Bc6 X139 Rdc8 X140 38.Bd7? X141 Always the same mistake! 38...Rf8? X142

[ Better is: 38...Rd8 X143 ]

39.g5 X144 Bd8 X145 40.Bc6! X146 Be7 X147 41.Rd7 X148

At last!

41...Rfd8 X149 42.h5! X150 Kf8 X151 43.h6 X152

The Black army is prisoner in his camp: Black Prisoner (BPR:)!

43...Rxd7 X153 44.Rxd7

This last part is the Full-Endgame (FENG:)

New Chess Theory IV - Unfolding of a game.

X154 Rd8 X155 45.Rd3? X156

[ Accurate is: 45.Rb7!+- X157 ]

45...Rd4+? X158 46.Ke3? X159

[ The only answer: 46.Rxd4 X160 cxd4 X161 47.Kxd4 X162 +- and the White victory is obvious.] 46...b5?? X163

How is it possible?

[ After: 46...Rxc4! X164 47.Rd7 X165 Rd4 X166 48.Rxd4 X167 cxd4+ X168 49.Kxd4 X169 the endgame is certainly a draw.]

47.cxb5 X170 axb5 X171 48.a5? X172 Rd8?? X173

[ The right move is: 48...Ra4 X174 ] 49.Bxb5 +-

Franckly a very disappointing endgame, unworthy of grandmasters. They were to be in trouble time; there is the only reasonable explanation I find.

1-0
