The chore of reviewing games is not that much fun but has to be done.  Here are a couple of games from the just finished June Premium International Open

selected games

Defending 1.e4 c6 is today’s subject

Felmery-Yip

Caro-Kann, King’s Indian Attack

The tournament got off a good start as I held a draw with Black

After 29..Ne7(Diagram)

Black has more space, the better bishop and is well centralized

What do you recommend for White?
