Anti-London System DVD

Endelig en DVD spesielt om å spille svart mot London-systemet med d4, Sf3 og Lf4, som er så ekstremt populært særlig på klubbnivå. Pelletier presenterer et repertoar som faktisk er uavhengig av hva du ellers spiller mot 1 d4 fulgt av 2 c4.

Som vanlig på de nye åpnings-DVD'ene fra ChessBasem, inneholder den en interaktiv treningsdel i tillegg til selve gjennomgangen av planer og partier. For konkret innhold på denne DVD'en, se nedenfor.

ChessBase sin egen omtale:

The London System, which for a long time had the reputation of a rather harmless sideline, has developed into a very popular opening, and World Champion Magnus Carlsen is only one of many top players who play it regularly. The London System indeed suits the modern approach to openings very well: White does not necessarily strive for an opening advantage but is content to develop his pieces and hopes to outplay his opponent in the middlegame. However, the London System is more dangerous than it seems and if Black is not careful he can easily wind up in a bad position. Theory develops fast today, even in less concrete systems.

On this DVD GM Yannick Pelletier offers Black a repertoire against the London System that you can employ no matter which opening (Systems with d5, systems with g6, Queen’s Indian, Queen’s Gambit, Benoni, Benko, Dutch) you usually play against 1.d4 followed by 2.c4. Thematic games explain and illustrate the theory and ideas of the repertoire Pelletier proposes. At the end of the DVD you are invited to test your knowledge. The author pauses at key moments and asks you to find and to play the best move, after which he gives feedback. A database with carefully selected and annotated games helps you to understand and play the opening better and to counter the London System with success.
