@SpongeInPyjama In normal openings white has about 56% (black 44%), so benoni is an quite good opening with 46% for black. You shouldn’t think too much about the percents, except for they are not too extreme. Players can become good positions and nevertheless lose.

why wouldn’t whites second move be c1 to g5?

Thanks for lots of interesting vids. But, I have one question regarding this Benoni defence; which “Why whites don’t take the black pawn in C5?” Thanks beforehand for the answer.

Why wouldn’t white capture the hanging pawn on c5?

Getting back into chess….just have a quick question…why wouldn’t white capture the pawn on c5 instead of white “developing to d5″? It looks as though white gets a hanging pawn the 4th move in…..
