About the 150 Attack
The 150 Attack, Be3 and Qd2 followed by f3 and long castling, is named after the English grading of club players who used it. Black counters with ...c6, ...b5 and ...Nbd7 on the queenside, and slows the kingside attack with ...h6.
The 150 Attack (B07) is one of 3 lines of the Pirc Defence you can train here as Black. It starts with 1.e4 d6 2.d4 Nf6 3.Nc3 g6 4.Be3 c6. Learn the 150 Attack move by move, then play it against the computer until the book moves come automatically. After the opening, the page shows the typical middlegame plans, the endgames that often follow and grandmaster games with the 150 Attack. Train it regularly as part of your set of defences against 1.e4 and 1.d4: the speed mode and drill show quickly which moves you still forget.
