A Simple White 1.e4 Repertoire - Part IV |
The recommendation is to use Exchange Variations against both the Caro-Kann and French Defenses. A classic Fischer game is the Caro-Kann example. For the French Defense there is some analysis. |

A Simple White 1.e4 Repertoire - Part III |
The recommendation is to use the Exchange Variation against the Ruy Lopez. Bobby Fischer turned the Exchange Variation into a fearsome weapon, so one of his games serves as an example. If you play the Exchange Variation you should know how to play the favorable K+P endgame that can result. The endgame example was set up against Fritz. |

A Simple White 1.e4 Repertoire - Part II |
The recommendation is to use a St. George Attack against both the Pirc and Modern Defenses. The examples are blitz games, so they are far from perfect. However they do show how dangerous White's attack can be. |
