Timur explains that there is no reason to allow a Queen’s Indian because Black will struggle against this White response and that the Black Nimzo-Indian is harmless as the 4.Qc2 move is favored by both Kasparov and Carlsen with excellent results. Timur then examines Aronian-Karpov and makes the following findings; - Queen’s Indian sidelines and the Ragozin considered if 3.Nf3 is played - 3.Nc3 limits Black Choices. - Good White N(g)e2 System against 3…d5 4.cxd5. - 4.Qc2 System (Kasparov’s Choice) - Black’s choices v 4.Qc2; 4…c5 don’t play 5.e3. - Explanation of Qc2 Advantages (covers c3). - 7.a3 Main Line against 5…Bxc5 6.Nf3 0-0. - How White should play against Hedgehog Opening. - Don’t trade Bishops to relieve Black’s cramp. - Preventing Knight activity with Bishop positional control.
