QGD - Chigorin Defense Chess Resources
The Chigorin Defense is a chess opening named for 19th-century Russian master Mikhail Chigorin. An uncommonly played defense to the Queen's Gambit, it begins with the following moves:
1. d4 d5
2. c4 Nc6
The Chigorin Defense is a solid but slightly offbeat choice for Black, as it allows White to gain a slight space advantage in the center of the board. Black's idea is to undermine White's center with counterattacks on the queenside, often by advancing the a-pawn and placing pressure on the b2-pawn. Black also has the option of playing for an eventual ...e5 break to challenge White's pawn center.
One of the main drawbacks of the Chigorin Defense is that it can lead to somewhat passive positions for Black, as the c4-pawn exchange weakens the d5-pawn and makes it difficult for Black to mount an attack on the kingside. However, experienced players can use the Chigorin Defense to good effect by seeking counter-play and attacking chances on the queenside.
