White's opening with 1 b4 is known by a variety of names. Tartakower gave it the colorful moniker "Orangutan" after a visit to the zoo during the New York 1924 tournament. Sokolsky published significant analysis of the opening and his name is associated with the opening in much of Europe, but the move is also known as the Polish Opening. It is not really a radical opening and author Wall has provided a thorough survey of the current theory. It is a very playable game for the venturesome who are willing to depart from the most analyzed openings.
The Orangutan (1 b4), also known as the Polish Opening or Sokolsky's Opening, got its name after the Polish Grandmaster Saviely Tartakower visited the New York Central Park Zoo during the 1924 New York International Tournament. He was impressed by an Orangutan named Susan at the zoo and decided to dedicate his next game to her. In round 4 he played 1 b4 against Geza Maroczy and drew after 57 moves.
The opening was played during the 19th century. Analysis of this opening first appeared in a Russian magazine, SHAKMATNOYE OBOZRENIYI, in 1903 by Nikolai Bugayev. After Tartakower introduced this opening at the master level, Richard Reti began playing it after transposing into it by first playing 1 Nf3, then 2 b4.
The Soviet master Alexei Sokolsky (1908-1969) began playing and analysing this opening in the 1930s, from over-the-board play and correspondence play. His analysis first appeared in an opening monograph, DEBYUT 1 b2-b4, in 1963.
This opening has been occasionally played by grandrna.sters such as Alekhine, Benko, Lombardy, Spassky, Ljubojevic, Hort, Miles, Larsen, and Smyslov. It is more popular among correspondence players who like to play lesser-known openings. White aims to fianchetto his Queen Bishop along the a1-h8 diagonal while preventing Black from expanding on the Queenside. Black has many options to control the center and start his own attack. Both sides have many tactical threats and good attacking chances.
This book provides an extensive review of published theory and games on the 1 b2-b4 opening. The Orangutan will appeal to those who like surprise openings and wish to avoid over-analysed positions.
