Counter the London System

One more example game
a lot of the time you end up trading the bishops and going into a midgame with knights. It can also lead to really closed positions like this game with kings in the middle. You also have minority attack possibilities. Basically with this line black equalizes completely and sometimes gets an advantage.

Yeah so like ShaneTrain said I just play early c5 and take so I can play a position I am used to. I definitely prefer the Caro kann btw.

I play the Benko against c4-d4 so in dont really see it, the idea dies on the spot. But just closing up the long diagonal and keep it closed for the queens bishop does the trick.
