Thanks! 😊

Would love to see the game! Can you post it in the Discord?

@@ChessDojo sure I’ll do it later

Thanks! The main difference is that the bishop can get kicked with h6, which is sometimes a plus for Black, but not in every line. The bishop on g5 tends to make things more difficult for Black on the kingside, but the bishop on e3 supports White's queenside play, so there can be a few pros and cons in each position.

@@ChessDojo As a person with both experience in 6. Be3 and 6. Bg5 I find 6...c5 attemps by black a lot more annoying when playing Bg5 considering you're forced into an odd benoni where if blacks knows his theory he can get his queenside push going. Meanwhile with 6. Be3 c5 7. Nf3 (pointed out in video) you get a rather comfortable maroczy. After 7...Nc6 you usually end up in the mainline of the trendy h3 maroczy (Jan Gustafsson says this practically refutes the maroczy, the Bg4! trap) and with 7... b6 you have a couple of options, 8. Bd3 (Karpovs choice), 8. g3 or even 8. g4, but I find 8. Qd2 to be the best with the dragon-like plan of f3 > 0-0-0 > Bh6 which is pretty hard to meet as black. It's a decent choice for sure ;)

Finished in a draw

By watching the video!

@@ChessDojo LOL

It is certainly possible to play d5 against c5 as well, leading to a Benoni where White has committed the bishop to e3. Most top players seem to prefer to play a Maroczy structure against the c5 lines, probably influenced by the engine :)
