fianchetto
Seperti yang telah dinotakan di atas, gajah cuma dapat bergerak pada satu warna sahaja. Ini boleh membawa kepada situasi di mana satu gajah boleh dikatakan disekat daripada bermain oleh struktur bidak pemain. Secara umumnya, situasi akan lebih bagus bagi pemain jika bidak berada di petak warna yang berbeza dengan gajah, walaupun ini agak susah di awal permainan. Sebagai contoh, jika Hitam mempunyai bidak di petak e6 dan d5, gajah sebelah menteri ada kemungkinan menjadi "gajah buruk". Ia menjadi buruk kerana amat sukar melakukan sesuatu yang membina dengannya; memajukannya ke g4 adalah mustahil dan melakukan <anchor>fianchetto</anchor> melalui b7 tidak berkesan kerana bidak Hitam di d5 akan menyekat sebarang pengaruh yang mungkin dipunyainya terhadap tengah papan.

Fianchettoed bishops

![](//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/99/Wiktionary-logo-en-v2.svg/40px-Wiktionary-logo-en-v2.svg.png)

Look up _**[fianchetto](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/fianchetto "wiktionary:fianchetto")**_ in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

This article uses [algebraic notation](/wiki/Algebraic_notation_(chess) "Algebraic notation (chess)") to describe chess moves.

In [chess](/wiki/Chess "Chess"), the **fianchetto** (English: [/ˌfiənˈkɛtoʊ/](/wiki/Help:IPA/English "Help:IPA/English") or [/ˌfiənˈtʃɛtoʊ/](/wiki/Help:IPA/English "Help:IPA/English");[\[1\]](#cite_note-1)Italian:[\[fjaŋˈketto\]](/wiki/Help:IPA/Italian "Help:IPA/Italian") "little flank") is a pattern of [development](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#development "Glossary of chess") wherein a [bishop](/wiki/Bishop_(chess) "Bishop (chess)") is developed to the second [rank](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#rank "Glossary of chess") of the adjacent b- or g-[file](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#file "Glossary of chess"), the [knight pawn](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#knight_pawn "Glossary of chess") having been moved one or two squares forward.

The fianchetto is a staple of many " [hypermodern](/wiki/Hypermodernism_(chess) "Hypermodernism (chess)")" [openings](/wiki/Chess_opening "Chess opening"), whose philosophy is to delay direct occupation of the [centre](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#centre "Glossary of chess") with the plan of undermining and destroying the opponent's occupied centre. It also regularly occurs in [Indian defences](/wiki/Indian_defence "Indian defence"). The fianchetto is less common in [Open Games](/wiki/Open_Game "Open Game") (1.e4 e5), but the [king bishop](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#king_bishop "Glossary of chess") is sometimes fianchettoed by Black in the [Ruy Lopez](/wiki/Ruy_Lopez "Ruy Lopez") or by White in an uncommon variation of the [Vienna Game](/wiki/Vienna_Game "Vienna Game").

One of the major benefits of the fianchetto is that it often allows the fianchettoed bishop to become more active. A fianchettoed position, however, also presents some opportunities for the opponent: if the fianchettoed bishop can be [exchanged](/wiki/Exchange_(chess) "Exchange (chess)"), the squares the bishop was formerly protecting will become weak (see _[hole](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#hole "Glossary of chess")_) and can form the basis of an attack (particularly if the fianchetto was performed on the [kingside](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#kingside "Glossary of chess")). Exchanging the fianchettoed bishop should not be done lightly, therefore, especially if the enemy bishop on same-coloured squares is still on the board.

## Concept

\[ [edit](/w/index.php?title=Fianchetto&action=edit&section=1 "Edit section: Concept")\]

The diagram shows three different sorts of fianchetti (not from an actual game, but as examples collapsed into a single diagram). White's king bishop is in a regular fianchetto, with the knight pawn advanced one square and the bishop occupying the [long diagonal](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#long_diagonal "Glossary of chess"). This is by far the most common type of fianchetto, seen in the [Sicilian Dragon](/wiki/Sicilian_Defence,_Dragon_Variation "Sicilian Defence, Dragon Variation"), [Pirc Defence](/wiki/Pirc_Defence "Pirc Defence"), [Modern Defence](/wiki/Modern_Defence "Modern Defence"), [Modern Benoni](/wiki/Modern_Benoni "Modern Benoni"), [Grünfeld Defence](/wiki/Gr%C3%BCnfeld_Defence "Grünfeld Defence"), [Nimzo-Indian](/wiki/Nimzo-Indian_Defence "Nimzo-Indian Defence"), and [King's Indian Defence](/wiki/King%27s_Indian_Defence "King's Indian Defence"), among other openings. The regular fianchetto of both bishops by a player is called a _double fianchetto_.[\[2\]](#cite_note-2)

Black's [queen bishop](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#queen_bishop "Glossary of chess") is also fianchettoed, but the knight pawn has moved forward two squares, making this a _long fianchetto_. The b-pawn also controls the c4-square, which is often advantageous. If White plays the [King's Indian Attack](/wiki/King%27s_Indian_Attack "King's Indian Attack") 1.Nf3 2.g3, Black may play a long [queenside](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#queenside "Glossary of chess") fianchetto to oppose White's bishop and make it more difficult for White to play a c4 [pawn break](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#pawn_break "Glossary of chess"). A long fianchetto on the kingside is more rarely played, because it weakens the pawn shield in front of the castled position and controls a less important square. Nevertheless, [Grob's Attack](/wiki/Grob%27s_Attack "Grob's Attack") 1.g4 and the [Borg Defence](/wiki/Borg_Defence "Borg Defence") ("Grob" backwards) 1.e4 g5 [?!](/wiki/Chess_annotation_symbols#?! "Chess annotation symbols") are sometimes played by players such as [IM](/wiki/International_Master "International Master") [Michael Basman](/wiki/Michael_Basman "Michael Basman").

White's queen bishop has moved to a3 in what is sometimes called an _extended fianchetto_. Rather than control the long diagonal, it takes aim at Black's f8-square. If Black moves his e-pawn, White can play Bxf8, after which Black will have to waste [time](/wiki/Glossary_of_chess#time "Glossary of chess") on [artificial castling](/wiki/Artificial_castling "Artificial castling") after recapturing with his king. This tactic is often seen in the [Evans Gambit](/wiki/Evans_Gambit "Evans Gambit") and gives the [Benko Gambit](/wiki/Benko_Gambit "Benko Gambit") much of its bite. Black often plays ...Ba6 in the [French Defence](/wiki/French_Defence "French Defence"), and in the [Queen's Indian Defence](/wiki/Queen%27s_Indian_Defence "Queen's Indian Defence") if White plays g3 in order to fianchetto his own bishop ( [Aron Nimzowitsch](/wiki/Aron_Nimzowitsch "Aron Nimzowitsch")'s move against the [classical main line](/wiki/Queen%27s_Indian_Defence#Old_main_line "Queen's Indian Defence")).

Position after 8.Bb2

The game [Rubinstein](/wiki/Akiba_Rubinstein "Akiba Rubinstein")– [Nimzowitsch](/wiki/Aron_Nimzowitsch "Aron Nimzowitsch"), Marienbad 1925,[\[3\]](#cite_note-3) had four fianchettoed bishops, two developed knights, and two on their home squares. In this position, Nimzowitsch humorously pointed out in _[My System](/wiki/My_System "My System")_: "Each side castles now with a clear conscience, for not even the most hypermodern pair of masters can produce more than four fianchettoed Bishops!"[\[4\]](#cite_note-4)
