Anybody interested in playing a set piece Pirc game against me - you as white? I'd prefer somebody 1600+ that knows the Pirc lines and is willing to play the 150 or Austrian Attack.

I would like to play as white with set piece
1. e4 d6 2. d4 Nf6 3. Nc3 g6 4. f4 Bg7
I play the ljubojevic variation 5. Bc4

150 Attack is an variation name in England it means that even a 150 BCF grade ( Elo 1800) can beat a very strong player with it.........this is because the ideas and plans are so easy to understand yet difficult to meet.

Originally posted by najdorfslayerthis "150" or whatever it's really called is actually a pretty tame line for white to play...if black knows how to respond to this he can equalize or get an advantage rather easy..on the other hand..if he doesn't know how to respond to this primitive set-up...black would get smothered

Originally posted by bikingvikingNot usually much of a prob as black will usually have a pawn on e5 already anyway..idk all depends on what variation is played..like I said though black just has to know what hes doing

Originally posted by najdorfslayerI've also heard it called the caveman attack, because the ideas are so simple. That said, I play it with success against both a class A and a class C players at my club.
