This nove characterizes the "ti-ght-lever variations".

Blacl<'s main possibility of counterplay is connected with the
"Ieve:r" c7-a5, resulting in a pav/n-structur'e of the type shown
on dragrarn no.1 . This structure leaves lllhite with the ehoice
between capturing and protecting. This type of "Iever" is ca11ed
a "tight-1ever", and the resul-ting variations might be called
"tight-1ever variations". Another outstanding feature of this
pawn-structure is the cramplng effec! of the pawn at e5.
Other 4th noves by Vlhite lead to "Ioose-lever variationsrr, _charac'berized throrrgf, ttre pavrn-structure shown on diagran no.2
Here Black's "Iever" c7-a5 leaves V{hite with the choi-ce between
capturing, protecting and advancing. The additional possibility
of advancing, in comparison to the "tight-1ever variations",
justifies the name "locse'r.

The'position on cliagram no. 34 is the basic position for the

Russian Varlati-on.
The theory of this variation is stj-I1 in a state of f1ux, and
ganes on rebord are scarce.

This move 1s not particularly popular today, but in as much as it

expresses the baslc theme in the actual study, it has been ta-ken
as the text-variatlon.
Alternatives for Yrlhite are:

A,"5 (See tliagraln no.35 ). This mpve was suggested as an
improvement on 5.Q:97 in &-S.r 1956-monograptr.y, and
in his 1959 work "Spanisch bis trYanzdslsch'r it has
been taken as the text-variation.
According to Pachman, however, Black need not be too
al:rious.
tamples erith Q:e7 after 6.cl:c5 are:
a) 6...82c7+ 7.b:c5 Qc7 8.Q:97 RgB 9.Q:h7 l[d? 1o.lle

This game shoulcl be subjected. to a closer study.
fs it possible to decluct, that Black necessartly
must have central play after Q:gI?. This is, rithout doubt, more ctifficult to obtain irfter'6;dtc5,
due to the. clecrease 1n central tdnsion.

The difference between tne sacrifice here and in
the note to White's 7th move is, that with the
white Q at h6 the bishop at c1 is protected, and
this circumstance makes the strong Nb5-sa11y possible , giving Black a lot of worries.
ft is interesting to see, that wh11e Korchnqi in
his annotations to ,the game @=Kor-g-Ure.i (CI,\,ff
no.2o8) claims, that the move B...Qa1 leads to an
obscure posi-tion, then Keres consi-ders the win of

The position on diagra, no.69 is the basic position for the

Konstantinopolski j Variation.
The move 1o.Ne2 was originally a suggestion from Konstantinopol-ski.i . white prevents 1o. . . QzcS+ ana ro1 . . Q:e5+GTEIE-s
bringing the king into the dangerous d-fi-l-e , as was the case
in the Euive-Gligoric variation. The move 1o.Ne2 is supposedly
rnore sol-id tl-ran 1o"Kdl, but on the other hand whi-te racts some

of the characteristic possibilities

in the Euwe-Gligoric variation, ag. the Ng5-saI1y, and simultaneously the white-squared
bishop is momentarily blocked.
Formerly the move 1o.Ne2 was considered v/hite's most important
answer to 9...c:d4, but today l-o.Io1 and 1o"Ne2 must be considered equally i-mportant (1o.Ne2 was taken-as main-varlatj_on in
Keresr "French Defence,'11956, while l6'3dl is taken as mainvariation i-n Keres' ,'Spanisch bis Franzdsisch', r1969)'.
The one move G not necessarily better than the other. As usuall! i:.9n1y a question of being aware of what you are doi_ng, and
of liking
it.
