Analyzing Games Based on Opening #5 - King's Indian Attack

Hikaru Nakamura in 2016 is good, man. Definitely not the best year, but still played wonderful chess. I just wish he would win the Candidates one day.

The “Indian” in chess openings like the King’s Indian Defense comes from 19th-century Indian players, especially Moheschunder Bannerjee, who popularized fianchetto-based defenses in European chess, leading to the term’s adoption in the late 1800s and its formalization in the 20th century.

I've played the King's Indian as both White and Black before, but I don't prefer to play it. I like to play the French defense and Queen's Gambit Declined when I'm black. When I'm White, I usually start my games with 1.d4

Trying different things out can be good if you know what I mean.

Good luck and do your best in your chess games!
