Russian System
I am wondering to buy this e-book about Russian system in Modern-chess.
Can somebody give me an opinion about the quality? Looks interesting at first sight. Started 03/12/16 at 21:18:13 by chesstheory |

Is the Grunfeld a poor opening for winning chances
I've played a lot of blitz with the Grunfeld lately and I enjoy the positions but they seem a lot more defined than with the NID/QID where you get a ton of pawn breaks and the game is closed longer. <...

Gruenfeld repertoire against all 1.d4 systems
I am familiar with The Kaufman Repertoire, but which other printed books detail a repertoire for Black against all the 1.d4 systems (i.e. not only 2.c4) that is based around the Gruenfeld?

Reply to White's 3.d5 pawn advance
Hi All,
In the Grunfeld defence, what happens if White plays 3.d5 after 1.d4,Nf6, 2.c4,g6 ? Doesn't the pawn advance cramp up Black's position? Regards, Utpal Started 04/05/15 at 15:16:43 by Utpal Nandi |
