Chessable Botvinnik English
This course has just been published, done by Simon Williams and Richard Palliser. It has an interesting move order e.g. 1.c4 e5 2.Nc3 to get to the Botvinnik. Against e6, it goes 1.c4 Nf6 2.Nc3 e6 3.N...

The White Sniper
I've almost worked out a forced win for White based on 1.g3, 2.Bg2 and 3.c4 regardless of what Black plays (excluding pawn drops and dumb b5 moves). 
But there's one variation I can't find a win ...

Hello all.
I'm ditching my not-so-trusty King's Indian and taking up the Classical Slav against 1. d4.  Unfortunately this necessitates changing my repertoire against c4 and Nf3.  I hope ChessPub...

HOBBS-ZILBERMINTS GAMBIT
Okay, people. What do you think about 1 f4 h6! 2 Nf3 g5
3 fg5 hg5 4 Nxg5 d5, the Hobbs-Zilbermints Gambit?
It's a very original way to beat the Bird Opening.
