Download or read book Playing the Stonewall Dutch written by Nikola Sedlak and published by Quality Chess. This book was released on 2020-07-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dutch Defence is one of Black's most combative responses to 1.d4, and the Stonewall is the boldest version of this opening. Black immediately seizes space in the centre and clamps down on the e4-square, laying the foundations for a complicated strategic battle. Many players believe the Stonewall to be a substandard opening, naively assuming that the e5-outpost and bad light-squared bishop must give White the advantage. GM Nikola Sedlak disagrees, and in Playing the Stonewall Dutch he shares the insights that have helped him to rack up a healthy plus score from Black's side. In addition to providing a complete repertoire in the main lines of the Stonewall, this book also offers useful guidance on dealing with Anti-Dutch variations and various move-order subtleties.

Download or read book Win with the Caro Kann written by Sverre Johnsen and published by Gambit Publications. This book was released on 2021-03-04 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Caro-Kann is a rare beast among chess openings. While respected as a sound and safe way to start the game, it also avoids symmetry or simplification. This allows Black many ways to keep the game unbalanced and play for a win. Two Norwegian opening experts provide a set of options that take full advantage of this flexibility. In the main line, you are given a choice between the 4...Bf5 and the 5...exf6 systems - but both strictly in their modern dynamic forms! In the latter, Hansen is a world-leading authority, with a wealth of experience to explain the typical mistakes White makes when facing this deceptively tricky line. By studying his material, you will be well ahead of the game in this rapidly-evolving system. For instance, the critical improvements over the Duda-Carlsen game in 2020 were already in Hansen's files from two years earlier. The other recommended systems for Black are also aggressive and very much the '21st-century Caro-Kann'. It's 3...c5 against the Advance, in which Hansen is also an outstanding specialist. The Panov Attack is answered with ...g6 lines - strategically ideal, and nowadays backed up by amazing modern computer analysis. Against the Two Knights, we are offered an ...exf6 option as well as the ...Bg4 approach. The repertoire is completed with good sensible recommendations against almost every other conceivable move White can throw at the Caro-Kann. This extremely up-to-date book has an innovative structure, with 'lessons', model games and theory 'magnifiers'. Sverre Johnsen is a chess analyst, researcher, organizer, trainer and writer from Norway. He is co-author of Win with the London System and Win with the Stonewall Dutch, two of the best-selling openings books of recent years. Grandmaster Torbjorn Ringdal Hansen is also from Norway. He is one of the founders of the chess retail business Sjakkhuset and works full-time as a chess trainer. He was the first coach of Magnus Carlsen (in 1999) and currently works with several grandmasters.

Download or read book Dismantle the Dutch Defense with the Dangerfield Attack written by David Rudel and published by Thinker Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dutch Defense players often have the smug satisfaction of knowing their opening better than their opponents. But if you play the Dangerfield Attack, the joke will be on Black! Like the American comic icon Rodney Dangerfield, those who use an early Bf4 against the Dutch "get no respect." Dutch Defense manuals frequently dismiss it, but then they ignore White's best continuation, often assuming the first player will follow up with a meek London System setup. Rudel presents an entirely new way to play Bf4 against the Dutch. This attack is a plug-and-play solution for those opening 1.d4. All standard Dutch Defense formations are covered, including Q-side fianchetto defenses and the deferred Leningrad. NOTE: This book is essentially the anti-Dutch segment from Rudel's much larger book, Fight the King's Indian, Grunfeld, and Dutch Defenses with Zuka. This smaller book has been released concurrently specifically (and solely!) for those who are satisfied with their lines against ...g6 and only want a new response to the Dutch.
Download or read book Win with the London System written by Sverre Johnsen and published by Gambit Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The London System is a perennial favourite of club players, as it is a very sound and solid system with a real practical sting. The authors of this new book seek to maximize this sting in two principal ways. Firstly, by explaining in detail the typical plans for White, they help readers to make the most of their chances, whether they are based on a kingside attack, queenside penetration, central play, or transition to a favourable endgame. Secondly, they advocate some subtle move-orders that limit Black's options, and give White possibilities to change the nature of the game and go straight for the kill if Black responds casually or inappropriately. These move-orders have been tested successfully by co-author Kovacevic at grandmaster level, and much of the analysis presented here is of totally new variations, and is previously unpublished. Covers all responses to 1 d4 against which White can use the London System.

Download or read book Keep It Simple 1 d4 written by Christof Sielecki and published by New In Chess. This book was released on 2019-12-12 with total page 774 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the success of his award-winning book Keep it Simple 1.e4 International Master Christof Sielecki is back. His new repertoire based on 1.d4 has a similar profile: variations that are straightforward and easy to remember, and require little or no maintenance. Sielecki has created a reliable set of opening lines for chess players of almost all levels. The major objective is to dominate Black from the opening, by simple means. You don’t need to sacrifice anything or memorize long tactical lines. His main concept is for White to play 1.d4, 2.Nf3, 3.g3, 4.Bg2, 5.0-0 and in most cases 6.c4. Sielecki developed this repertoire while working with students who were looking for something that was easy to understand and easy to learn. This new 1.d4 repertoire may be even easier to master than his 1.e4 recommendations, because it is such a coherent system. Sielecki always clearly explains the plans and counterplans and keeps you focussed on what the position requires. Ambitious players rated 1500 or higher will get great value out of studying this extremely accessible book.

He also uses games of young, improving players to highlight the errors they tend to make.

Download or read book The Diamond Dutch written by Viktor Moskalenko and published by New In Chess. This book was released on 2014-09-16 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grandmaster Viktor Moskalenko shakes up the lines of yet another chess opening! For those who have the Dutch Defense in their repertoire or play against it, this brings an explosive mixture of danger and opportunity. Danger if you stick to your old ways, opportunity if you are ready to take up Moskalenko’s new weapons or his refutations of old ones. Moskalenko covers the Anti-Dutch, Leningrad, Stonewall and Classical variations. He guides you through this ground-breaking opening book with the enthusiasm, the ease and the humor that characterize his style. For ‘The Diamond Dutch’ goes what chess star Vassily Ivanchuk said about Moskalenko’s previous work ‘The Perfect Pirc-Modern’: “This book will undoubtedly help you to master not just the Pirc and Modern Defences, but also to systematize and perfect your understanding of the key points of other openings.” ,
Download or read book Leningrad Dutch written by MIHAIL. MARIN and published by . This book was released on 2021-09 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dutch chess opening is renowned as a fighting weapon against 1.d4, as 1...f5 immediately sets up an unbalanced struggle. Then Black's kingside fianchetto, which defines the Leningrad Dutch, allows pawn-storming play in similar style to the King's Indian Defense. Mihail Marin is the ideal author to explain both the strategic ideas and the latest theory. Leningrad Dutch covers lines where White also fianchettoes the king's bishop - these lines are the critical test of the Leningrad. The companion volume, Dutch Sidelines, completes Black's Dutch repertoire.
