Beating d4 openings with a flexible defensive system · Training Game
My favorite way of dealing with d4 openings is to aim for a Slav type of position or a London System in reverse, which is achieved by developing the bishop outside the pawn chain before playing e6.
This has been my reliable defensive weapon for years, and I always get positions which are relatively easy to play and which I understand well. That's why I ended this game with a lot of time on the clock, which is neeeeever the case when I play training games:D
