U.S. Chess Mates - Kings Indian

Kings Indian Defense This opening is one of my favorite as Black. You play a slow
defensive line that allows for great King safety. The Bishop on g7 is a big part of your
defense. White will try to trade dark squared Bishops to weaken your defense.
It arises after the moves:
1.d4 Nf6
2.c4 g6,
when Black intends to follow up with 3...Bg7 and 4...d6. The Grünfeld Defence arises
when Black plays 3...d5 instead, and is considered a separate opening. White's
major third move options are 3.Nc3, 3.Nf3 or 3.g3; both the King's Indian and
Grünfeld are playable against these moves.
