Attacking an Over-extended Center - Reti vs Bogoljubov, New York 1924.

Richard Reti was one of the pioneers of the Hyper-Modern School, along with a few other early chess theorists such as Gyula Breyer and Aron Nimzovich.

One of the key elements of Hyper-Modern theory (back in the 1920s, at least) was a strategy of luring the opponent into making premature commitments in the center, and then laying siege to the over-extended enemy center and destroying it.

Here is an example by the Master himself.

Such an historic tournament. Almost every game played is considered a classic today.

that looks like a nice opening i will have to try (if i can remember it).

one question, blue man-on move 8-d4-you write "preventing any early e6,e5". well, instead of black playing nbd7 on move 6, why not play e5?

Only one game with that move in Explorer. From a year ago.

And black won.

The engine thinks that 10. Nc3 was White's mistake in that Klekowski vs Serana game.

10. d3 instead would have given White a sizable edge.
