Can anyone give an overview of the repertoire :

Pert vs 

Tarrasch :   3...Nf6  ...which black system after 3...Nf6 ?
KIA : ?
Exchange variation : ?

Advance : 5...Bd7 Euwe system


This information will be critical in my decision to buy this DVD or not.


Got the DVD just few minutes ago  (with Tiviakov DVD and E.Berg'sbook)...

WARNING: don't assume this post is a review !! ...just one minute  content check....opening book with this format (commented games + database) looks like NiC Survey or Uhlmann's book (French Defence)...usually, very informative, good texts and assessments....I will not recommend it for players which prefer lines (raw moves and not so much explanations).

DVD is organized as 23 main commented games (video/text), questions/answers and additional database (682 games)

Tarrasch Nf6:
- two main commented games deals with 5.f4 (Krupkova,Gleizerov,Stockholm 1997 and Itratescu-Gleizerov, 1997)
- two main commented games for the "universal system" with a fianchetto line as Black (Sethuraman- Ganguly,2006 and Quillian-Pert)
- one main commented game for the "closed main line" (Sarakauskas-Pert,2013) and one for "side line" and Rasulov-Volkov)

KIA:
- one main commented game (Greet-Pert, 2000) with a 4...Nc6 system

Exchange variation:
- two commented games and...I believe (from my 2 minutes hearing of Introduction video) that system for Black is the opposite castling system,..., best explained in one of Neil McDonald's books about French


Advance:
- one main commented game (Howell-Pert) with the Euwe system and a further Nge7 line

Advance: 5...Bd7, f6 against a3, Nge7 against Be2. 

I am still going through the videos, Pert's explanations are good but assumes a certain level of understanding (I think his explanations of the subtleties of positional 7. Nf3 winawer is rather too concise for beginners). If you want more explanation of plans, Williams' videos are probably better (Williams' explanation of 3... Nf6 Tarrasch is first class). However I prefer Pert's choice of lines so YMMV. 

I second that. Pert assumes a certain level of understanding and a lot of the lines he suggests involves sacrificing a pawn for the initiative.
I would not recommend this DVD to someone just starting to learn openings.

Two questions:

1.  Which lines is he promoting vs the Advance?
2.  How much explanation of general ideas is offered as opposed to concrete analysis?  In other words, would it be suitable for someone just coming to the French?

Seems that both 12...d4 and old main line Bd7 winawer pp covered...


You mean 1. e4 e6  2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 Bb4 4. e5 c5 5. a3 Bxc3+ 6. bxc3 Ne7  7. Qg4 Qc7 8. Qxg7 Rg8 9. Qxh7 cxd4 10. Ne2 Nbc6 11. f4 dxc3 12. Qd3 d4..., right ?


Yep. There seems alot of videos made on this line already e.g. Shirov and Williams.

I just got this. Pert recommends Tarrasch 3... Nf6. Seems that both 12...d4 and old main line Bd7 winawer pp covered. Lots of his own games. 


Thanks Inn2.  What line does he cover for the Advance variation?

It would be helpful to know what lines he is covering.  I can't find it listed anywhere.
