Playing the Stonewall Dutch by Nikola Sedlak (miękka okładka)

Playing the Stonewall Dutch by Nikola Sedlak (miękka okładka)

Wersja językowa książki - angielska. The Dutch Defence is one of Blacks most combative responses to 1.d4, and the Stonewall is the boldest version of this opening. Black immediately seizes space in the centre and clamps down on the e4-square, laying the foundations for a complicated strategic battle.Many players believe the Stonewall to be a substandard opening, naively assuming that the e5-outpost and bad light-squared bishop must give White the advantage. GM Nikola Sedlak disagrees, and in Playing the Stonewall Dutch he shares the insights that have helped him to rack up a healthy plus score from Blacks side. In addition to providing a complete repertoire in the main lines of the Stonewall, this book also offers useful guidance on dealing with Anti-Dutch variations and various move-order subtleties.GM Nikola Sedlak is a former Serbian Champion who has won both the EU Individual Open Championship and an Olympiad gold medal. He has played the Stonewall for many years against strong opponents, achieving excellent results.328 pages - Published 15 July 2020Paperback ISBN: 978-1-78483-109-7Hardcover ISBN: 978-1-78483-110-3
