I always like to meet 5.b6, I just take it with the queen immediately and it’s fine for black. It’s funny because the only disadvantage for black is that you keep your a-pawn😂
@@MiodragPerunovicOfficial, Benkö is always a positional strategy for black. You exchange down to a rook and bishop endgame being one pawn down…and then just win it😂 White’s best general plan is to exchange bishops and rooks and keep queens and knights.
Looking at some of the computer lines if black plays qb7 instead of qc7- some very sharp lines where white gets a good edge, but must play very precisely otherwise black can get equal, but black also has to play precisely at moments otherwise he is completely lost.
I think you could go Bxa6, they can move the bishop out of the way but that pawn is protected and is a pain in the ass. Furthermore, you could push the a pawn later to connect them, and black can't really fight back since they don't have control of a8
I was wondering why he sugested b6. Ok i can understand to do something more postional In my opinion as i ocasional play benko b6 is not a problem for most. I think the Zaitsev is the best aproach here for tactical players and the most anyoing one for black
