Press For The WIN
With The Classical Variation
When playing against the Nimzo-Indian, it feels as if White is at the mercy of Black’s prep.
They can play the classic bishop-for-knight exchange, and “kill” both white bishops. Launch a kingside attack with …Ne4, …f5, and …Bb7. Or build a light-squared barricade, just to name a few. It’s impossible to tell which of these setups Black’s playing for — unless you reveal yours first.
That’s why in
Crush The Nimzo-Indian , Belous doesn’t waste time trying to “finesse” the second player. Instead, he plays the straight shooting
4.Qc2… which prepares e2-e4 and ensures your dominance in the center no matter what Black plays.
Make no mistake:
Your space advantage in the center will be met with active play. And things can get dangerous for both sides.
But that’s why you’ll love
Crush The Nimzo-Indian.
Because with Belous’ eye-opening instruction, you’ll knock the wind out of Black’s sails… and transform your vise-grip in the center into a winning advantage.
Over
350 trainable variations and
22 hours of video fill in the gaps in your move-by-move knowledge. Plus, with
an average line depth of 17.15 moves, you’ll know exactly how to snowball your ambitious opening play into a favorable middlegame or endgame.
In contrast, Black must deal with your increasing pressure and navigate the complications — but without the expert guidance you’ll get from the course.
Here’s a sneak peek of what’s inside:
👑 Against the flexible 4…O-O — You’ll take over the center, and kick away the f6-knight with a quick e4-e5 push. Without the black king’s stalwart defender, your attack is all but guaranteed to crash through.
👑 Against the punchy 4…c5 — You’ll bust the d-file open with 5.dxc5, then pounce on Black’s weakened dark squares and backward pawn.
👑 Against the solid 4…d5 — You’ll “freeze” the enemy kingside with Bg5. After which, Black must weaken their pawn structure in exchange for some semblance of activity.
👑 Against the transpositional 4…d6 — You’ll break the pin on your c3-knight with 5.Bd2… then strengthen your grip in the center with simple developing moves.
👑 And… against the noncommittal 4…b6 — You’ll stick to your guns with 5.e4 and force Black to show their hand. So you can adjust your strategy to punish their chosen setup.
The Nimzo-Indian Defense can be the bane of a 1.d4 player’s existence. Or, you can turn it into your hunting ground with the right preparation. If you like the sound of that, then take the first step by signing up for this course.
