Download or read book A Chess Opening Repertoire for Blitz Rapid written by Evgeny Sveshnikov and published by New In Chess. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Playing blitz is one of the great joys in every chess player’s life. In modern times, faster time controls have become more important than ever. Every day, innumerable numbers of rated blitz and rapid games are being played in online and over-the-board competitions and championships. In blitz, even more than in ‘classical chess’, it is important to make the right decisions quickly and almost instinctively. That is why world-famous opening expert Grandmaster Evgeny Sveshnikov and his son, International Master Vladimir Sveshnikov, have created a chess opening repertoire for club players that is forcing, both narrow and deep, and aggressive. The aim is to be in control as much as possible. You want to be the one who decides which opening is going to be played, you want to dictate the technical and strategic choices. And you want to keep the pressure, increasing your opponent’s chances to stumble. In designing their repertoire, father and son Sveshnikov have made a crucial choice: they do not want you to end up in positions where finding the theoretically best move is all-important, but in positions where it is relatively easy to keep finding the moves with the greatest practical effect and use. If you play the lines the Sveshnikovs have selected, your results will improve. You may even end up playing their variations in ‘slow chess’ as well.
Download or read book Queen s Gambit Declined written by Jacek Ilczuk and published by . This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vienna variation of the Queen's Gambit Declined is a complex and fascinating system arising after 1 d4 d5 2 c4 e6 3 Nc3 Nf6 4 Nf3 Bb4 5 Bg5 dxc4. This counterattacking weapon has become increasingly popular over the last decade and is frequently seen in games played at the highest level. Many games featuring elite players such as Garry Kasparov, Magnus Carlsen, Vladimir Kramnik, Viswanathan Anand and Lev Aronian have started out in this variation. In this QGD/Nimzo-Indian hybrid play can become extremely sharp very quickly and an in-depth knowledge of the theory is essential. Black will often grab material but will suffer from a lack of development and an exposed king. This variation will suit well-prepared players who have good tactical awareness and relish hand-to-hand combat.
Download or read book The Vienna Gambit for the Club Player written by Mike Read and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-15 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vienna Gambit is a sound but relatively forgotten opening. This book contains the most in-depth, comprehensive analysis of the opening to date, aimed primarily, but not exclusively, at the club player. To this end it contains over 600 diagrams intended to enable club players to follow the analysis without necessarily having a chessboard to hand. The book does not simply re-hash accepted theory on the Vienna Gambit, much of which was established before the age of modern computer engines and databases, but re-examines the opening from the bottom up. As a result, there is a wealth of exciting new analysis and the need for some variations to be re-evaluated; lines which established theory considers dubious are shown to be viable, and vice versa. This book will be useful to players of all abilities, from club player up to master level. At club level, after the introductory moves 1.e4 e5 2.Nc3 Nf6 3.f4, there is a good chance that Black is already out of book and floundering. The first three chapters cover inferior continuations from Black, namely accepting the gambit with 3...exf4, declining it passively with 3...d6, and other poor but plausible moves such as 3....Bb4 and 3....Nc6. At club level White will encounter these moves frequently and, with the refutations presented here, should achieve quick victories.The body of the book covers the main lines following 3...d5 4.fxe5 Nxe4. There are three chapters examining the Oxford Variation with 5.d3, three chapters on the Modern Variation after 5.Nf3 and three chapters on 5.Qf3, the Paulsen Attack. Unusually lines following 4.exd5, a rarely played deviation, are also examined over three chapters and shown to be viable for White. Each chapter concludes with an Illustrative game annotated by Senior International Master Mike Read.This book, therefore, offers White a choice of four avenues to follow, all viable, some suited to tactical players, others to those who prefer a more positional approach, and is essential to anyone wishing to play the Vienna Gambit.

Download or read book The King s Gambit written by John Shaw and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was a time when the Kings Gambit was the favorite chess opening of every attacking player. In the glory days of Paul Morphy it was considered almost cowardly to play anything else. Legends such as Spassky and Bronstein kept the flame burning in the 20th century, but its popularity faded, as many players are wary of sacrificing a pawn for long-term compensation. There are honorable exceptions whose games prove that this ancient weapon can still draw blood: Morozevich, Short, Zvjaginsev and ex-US Champion Yury Shulman are world-class players who attack with the Kings Gambit.

Download or read book A Disreputable Opening Repertoire written by Jonathan Tait and published by Everyman Chess. This book was released on with total page 962 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A highly adventurous repertoire designed to meet 1 e4 with 1...e5 and take the initiative! The main problem Black faces in answering 1 e4 with 1...e5 is the plethora of opening systems available to White: the Ruy Lopez, Giuoco Piano, Scotch, Ponziani, King’s Gambit, Vienna, Bishop’s Opening and so on. Each is likely to be White’s pet line, which usually means conducting the chess battle on the opponent’s turf. One solution is to study the main lines of all these openings and hope to remember what to do if they appear on the board. Another, more enterprising approach is to turn the tables and make White fight on your territory. Adopting the latter course, CC-SIM Jonathan Tait shares their investigations into a myriad of disregarded, “disreputable” responses, which can set White thinking as early as move three. These lines are greatly under-estimated by contemporary theory and include weird and wonderful variations such as the Calabrese Counter-Gambit (1 e4 e5 2 Bc4 f5), the Wagenbach Defence to the King’s Gambit (1 e4 e5 2 f4 exf4 3 Nf3 h5), the Romanishin Three Knights (1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Nc3 Bc5), the Two Knights Ulvestad Variation (1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Bc4 Nf6 4 Ng5 d5 5 exd5 b5) and ultra-sharp lines of the Jaenisch Gambit (1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Bb5 f5). The theory of the variations in this book is generally poorly understood. This has made them successful at all forms of play, including against online computer-assisted assault.

Download or read book Beating the Open Games written by Mihail Marin and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acclaimed author and chess grandmaster Mihail Marin presents an opening repertoire for Black against the Open Games. This means providing an answer to 1.e4, but not considering the main lines of the Spanish Opening. This includes openings such as the Scotch, the Vienna, the Spanish Exchange Variation, and even the notorious Kings Gambit. Marin uses his renowned writing skills to explain the ideas behind each move, so Beating the Open Games escapes the standard opening book trap of being a boring list of analysis. Marin has based the book mainly on his own repertoire and reveals many original moves and ideas. After studying this book the reader will not only have an excel-lent repertoire but also a deeper understanding of chess.
