The Benoni asks you to accept a target before you get counterplay. White gets space and pressure on d6. You get a queenside majority, active pieces, and chances to make that space overreach. Learn the 10 guide lines, drill the moments where the balance shifts, then play six Black-side scenarios against the bot.
Ten lines, one at a time: seven you play as Black, three as White. Step through the moves and read the comment as the position changes. Finish a line and its checkmark stays in your browser.
Keyboard: ← → step through the moves. Click any move chip to jump.
Where this comes from: every line, drill position, and quoted engine number comes from our Benoni Defense guide. Its Test Yourself positions include ...Re8 at -0.70 and the Old Benoni ...Qf6 shot at -2.85.
This is the board work. Twenty positions cover book moves, plans, traps, punishments, structure, and endgame echoes. The queue is shuffled on every run, so you answer the position in front of you rather than a remembered order. Click or drag a piece to move. Hints lead to the answer, and your score, streak, and solved drills stay in this browser.
Keyboard: Enter next drill · H hint · R reset the position.
Now test the bargain under pressure. Choose a variation, set the bot strength from the named levels or the 600 to 2500 Elo slider, and play Black. The coach calls out guide positions as they arise. Review the game when it ends.
Six positions from the guide, each with a concrete asset for White to press or Black to activate. Choosing one starts the game from that variation's position.
Three directions, each with a reason. Everything below links to a page that exists today.
