Slicing and dicing: the Budapest (Smyslov & Spassky)

Matthew Sadler: “Since the coming Olympiad is soon to start in Budapest, it seemed fun to take a look at the official opening of that fine city! This series of 8 videos looks at the ideas behind the Budapest Gambit and dives into the creative engine recommendations for White against it. This fourth video looks at the systems that great players such as Smyslov and Spassky came up with to deal with the danger of Black’s “floating” minor pieces on c5 and e5!”
