Opening Overview: Slav Indian

The Slav Indian (A50) is a notable Slav Indian variation, marked by the move c6. Traditionally favored by Vishy Anand, this system emphasizes controlling the center with pieces.

Strategic Context: Deviating from the common Indian Defense (g5), this line chooses c6. It succeeds by accepting a slightly lower evaluation to surprise the opponent. This move supports the center aggressively. Plans should focus on how to control the long diagonal to exert lasting pressure and develop rapidly.

Next Steps: Going forward, the critical task is to control the key diagonals to exert long-term pressure.

Data Analysis: Statistical models suggest equality (Eval: -0.37), with a high probability of a draw.
