Slav set-ups: …c6
Black builds a Slav wall with …c6 and …d5, then decides where his light-squared bishop goes. The ideas stay the same: trade a bishop on f5 with Bd3, ask a bishop on g4 a question with h3, and against …g6 play h3 and Be2. One new point: with your c-pawn still on c2, Qb3 is impossible, so answer …Qb6 with Qc1, guarding b2.

Picking up where you left off.
Five lines, three of them core:
- …c6 and …Bf5: trade on d3 (core)
- …c6, …Bf5 and …e6: take on f5 (important)
- …c6 and …Qb6: guard b2 with Qc1 (core)
- …c6 and …Bg4: the h3 question (core)
- …c6 and …g6: Schlechter style (important)
Learn takes up to five new lines at a time, core lines first. When the chapter is learned, practise it from memory.

Nice work.
