Playing 1.d4 - The Queen's Gambit by Lars Schandorff (twarda okładka)

Wersja językowa książki - angielska. Twarda okładka.
 
Playing 1.d4 - The Queen's Gambit is part of an ambitious two-volume repertoire for White with 1.d4. The core of the repertoire from the first edition, published in 2009, is retained, but a multitude of details have been updated and improved within the lines. This is both the same repertoire but at the same time so much more, as when a boy grows up and becomes a man - many features are unchanged, but his strength and knowledge are expanded immensely.

The repertoire is completed by Playing 1.d4 - The Indian Defences.

Lars Schandorff is a Danish Grandmaster who is renowned for his deep opening preparation.

ISBN 978-1-907982-16-3 - 320 pages - Published 13 July 2012

"Lars, I want to play your book" - GM Boris Avrukh

"Very well-written and an excellent choice for ambitious players" - Carsten Hansen

Reviews

"I find this book to be amazing. The repertoire is ambitious, and, yes, there is plenty to remember and you will have to work hard to get through this volume. However, Schandorff has done most of the work for you by selecting the lines, handing you the key alternatives, analyzing everything, and providing you with countless new ideas in every single variation. Nothing worthwhile ever comes easy, and working your way through this book will be worthwhile! The result of your efforts will be to have an armory of weapons in all the lines of the Queen's Gambit, and you will become a stronger chess player. It may even hand you some easy wins along the way."

Carsten Hansen, ChessCafe (full review)

"I liked very much Schandorff's twin works, as they offer a pragmatic repertoire for a wide range of strengths. If you are tempted by 1.d4, but are lacking in ideas, then with this pair of books '...you just might find, you get what you need'."

GM Glenn Flear, New in Chess

"I found when trying out his repertoire that it was of an objectively high quality, but it was at least equally important that it was one which I could play! The ideas are clear, the quantity isn't out of hand and the lines typically make sense."

Dennis Monokroussos, Chess Today

"A very valuable repertoire for the serious tournament player."

Skakbladet

"While 'Playing the Queen's Gambit' was successful, 'Playing 1 d4 - The Queen's Gambit' is even better. I can absolutely recommend it."

Uwe Bekemann, Fernschachpost

Wersja językowa książki - angielska. Twarda okładka.   Hardcover edition of GM 7 - The Caro-Kann by Lars Schandorff. In chess the Caro-Kann opening is one of Black's most reliable answers to 1.e4. It is a regular favorite of elite players, who know that computer-aided preparation now threatens the sharpest lines of the Sicilian or Ruy Lopez (at the very least with a forced draw). The Caro-Kann is less susceptible to such forcing lines – Black sets out to equalize in the opening, and win the game late

The Exhilarating Elephant Gambit by Michael Agermose Jensen and Jakob Aabling-Thomsen (twarda okładka)

The Elephant Gambit is perhaps the boldest opening in all of chess theory. By meeting 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 with 2...d5!?, Black takes the fight to his opponent and aims to seize the initiative as early as possible. The Exhilarating Elephant Gambit offers a complete repertoire for Black, based on 3.exd5 Bd6 or 3.Nxe5 Bd6 4.d4 dxe4. In return for the sacrificed pawn, Black ensures himself of quick and active development with most of his pieces pointing menacingly towards the enemy kingside. Attacking and other

 Wersja językowa książki - angielska. Twarda okładka.​​​​​​​ There was a golden era when The King's Gambit was the favourite opening of every attacking player. In the glory days of Paul Morphy it was considered almost cowardly to play anything else. Legends such as Spassky and Bronstein kept the flame burning in the 20th century, but its popularity faded as players became distrustful of White's ultra-aggressive approach. Nevertheless there are honourable exceptions whose games prove that this ancient w
