respectable alternatives to usual openigns that allow you to get consistently good positions in your games without having
to remember volumes of theory.

Part 2: 3...Bg4/3...Bf5/3...g6/3...c6/3...c5
Part 3: Nimzo-Indian/Queen's Indian/Bogo-Indian complex
Aaron Summerscale's d4 Dynamite! should appeal to less-advanced players. Young players often start out with a simple repertoire 1.d4 based on the Colle Attack; Summerscale provides such a repertoire with the Colle-Zukertort (1.d4, 2.Nf3, 3.e3, 4.Bd3 with a later b3 and Bb2) versus 1...d5, and a Colle with 1.Nf3, 2.Nf3, 3.e3, 4.Bd3, 5.0-0 and 6.c4 versus ...Nf6/...e6/...b6 systems. Summerscale cannot be faulted for lack of complete-game examples and strategic explanations: the tape lasts two-and-a-half hours! Without denying it's possible benefit to stronger players, I see this tape as a practical primer in elementary tactics and a non-threatening way for young players to be introduced to opening play. There is a great deal more care taken to explain why some 'obviously' winning position is indeed winning and what the ideas are behind the various plans tried by both sides. Unlike Davies' and Ward's repertoires, this one isn't as strictly organized or appropriate for memorization; it's merit resides in the simplicity of the ideas involved. Consider this tape if you're looking for a safe and quiet way of playing the opening or have a young student who might benefit from such a system. READ MORE...

FV2037 Foxy Openings - Najdorf - Davies - Chess DVD DVD - 75 Mins Get on board the Cadillac of Sicilians with GM Nigel Davies without having to learn reams of theory. The best defense to 1.e4 as played by Fischer and Kasparov! 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 a6
Part 1: 6.Bg5
Part 2: 6.Bc4
Part 3: 6.Be3/6.f3
Part 4: 6.f4/6.Bd3
Part 5: 6.Be2
Part 6: 6.h3/6.g3
The Najdorf is a complex, strategically messy system which hardly seems to lend itself to a 75-minute video. Davies had previously done a superb job of presenting a repertoire in the Chigorin Defense (1.d4 d5 2.c4 Nc6), and recently put out a repertoire with 1.e4 c5 2.d3 versus the Sicilian Defense. The latter seemed to me rather disorganized and unconvincing, which perhaps indicates how important subject matter can be in such cases. With the Najdorf repertoire, Davies made a believer out of me again. He covers every serious White system (6.Bg5, 6.Bc4, 6.Be3, 6.f4, 6.Be3, 6.a4 and 6.g3) in plenty of detail to arm someone for tournament play, and still has time to discuss things like 6.f3, 6.Bd3, and 6.h3. Since I myself played three of White's moves, I was impressed by his clever choice of responses, which limited the amount of study necessary for Black while retaining a fundamental soundness. Davies' presentation is fairly hurried, to be sure; but replaying the tape should suffice to fill in what one misses the first time. I don't have room to expand upon this, but if I wanted to take up the Najdorf for the first time, I could do much worse than to take my first steps with this tape. READ MORE...

FV2038 Foxy Openings - Nimzo-Indian Defence - Ward - Chess DVD DVD - 70 Mins GM Ward ia a major expert in the Nimzo-Indian and he pinpoints Black's zippiest options against all the White systems. Plenty of hard counter-punching and Chris Ward's own secrets. Watch out for his improvements in Kasparov's preferred lines! 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Bb4
Part 1: 4.Bd2
Part 2: 4.e3
Part 3: 4.a3 Part 4: 4.g3
Part 5: 4.Nf3
Part 6: 4.Bg5
Part 7: 4.f3
Part 8: 4.Qb3/4.Qc2
Another complex opening which is well-covered in a limited time is the Nimzo-Indian, presented by Chris Ward. Ward shows that by picking slightly unusual but positionally well-founded lines, Black can play the Nimzo-Indian without a great deal of preparation. He offers simple ideas against irregular moves such as 4.Bd2 and 4.g3, and classical solutions in the main lines such as 4.e3 b6, 4.Nf3 b6, and 4.Qc2 d5. The emphasis is on soundness over complications; players who want something spicier might do well to combine Ward's suggestions in the difficult lines with sharper alternatives provided by theory in others. Again, I can recommend this as an excellent starting point for an opening which will last you a lifetime. READ MORE...
