Hi all,
I am gonna play a tournament at the end of that month in slow time control.
I play the QGD with black and specifically the ragozine: 1 D4 d5 2 C4 e6 3 Nc3 Nf6 4 Nf3 Bb4 !
That is the position and I go there with the nimzo move order 1 ... Nf6 e6 then d5 and Bb4
I like it as a sister of my belove nimzo but i must admit that i don't have a great score with it. 40 % victory with black.
So i would like to let that opening aside for a while and try a new opening. Perhaps I am wrong ?
But i think that switching from one opening to be prepared in one month is too short. Perhaps not essential to have a great result to that tournament. 5 rounds, at the maximum I will play 3 games with black and have let's say d4 1 or 2 times
What do you think ?
I tought of playing still the ragozine like ok let's see or switching to another one
I thought trying the KID which I study a lot from the white side or to play some other QGD opening. I thought of the semi slav which is very interesting but in one month it is too complex and impossible. For the long term why not ?
I like the semi tarrash. I used to play it 2 years ago so why not giving it a shot another time.
I have in my back pocket the Tartakover which I played for some months as well.
The benko is interesting as well.
I played the Queen'indian defence some years ago.
The thing is some openings that I played can be great because I had lots of experienes whith it but at some point I dropped it because I found the middle game hard. My resulsts were ok => I mean I am black so perhaps it is ok ?
