Blitz Chess #392: King’s Indian Defense, Makogonov

A dynamic battle often arises out of the King’s Indian Defense. How might things vary, if at all, from the Makogonov variation? A critical moment presents itself as early as move 9. Capturing on f5 would lead to a dynamic battle, and not capturing would likely enter a strategic battle. Which path would white choose? This was a 5|0 time control game, where I was playing with the black pieces.

I’m a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
