In the video “Beating The Pirc Modern Defences” by GM Aaron Summerscale, we are taught a simple, yet effective response that White can use against any Pirc or Modern style defense that Black plays.

The set-up that is explained in the video is called the “150 Attack”. The 150 Attack can be played through tricky move orders that can cause the Black opponent problems if they are not prepared for the types of positions that arise. If Black is not careful, he can find himself the victim of a quick mating attack, starting right out of the opening.

At the beginning of the video we are shown White’s ideal set-up and the move order to achieve it. The idea behind this set-up is to have a large amount of center control and then continue with a kingside attack. Aaron follows this up by showing some different ways that Black can try to fight against White’s set-up, but also how White can overcome these maneuvers.

What kind of advantages does having a large pawn center bring? How can white transform this extra space into a kingside attack? Watch the video to find out!
