Three Lines Against the King's Indian
The Bayonett Attack: 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 Bg7 4.e4 d6 5.Nf3 0-0 6.Be5 7.0-0 Nc6 8.d5 Ne7 9.b4 This line is favoured by the elite and is regarded as the critical test of the King's Indian.
Korchnoi has added more to the boggest main line in the King's Indian than any other player, thus the line should be named after him: 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 Lg7 4.e4 d6 5.Nf3 0-0 6.Be2 e5 7.0-0 Nc6 8.d5 Ne7 9.Ne1 This line leads to wild complications and mutual attacks where the better-prepared player has a huge advantage.
Krasenkow has an overwhelming score withhis pet line: 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 Lg7 4.e4 d6 5.Nf3 0-0 6.h3 This ia a strategic line where understanding is needed rather than memorization.
