Alekhine Defense Playbook
After 1.e4 Nf6 Black is playing full contact “provocateur” chess. He develops a piece and attacks the White center pawn, drawing it forward to be targeted for siege. At first White gets to drive around the pesky Black Knight while gaining time and space - but is it hollow space behind a rickety pawn front, or a positional vice-grip?
