🏆 Shortlisted for Best Opening Course of 2021 🏆
Ambitious 1.e4 players, this one's for you!Tired Of Tricky Sidelines Sucking
The Fun Out Of Your Game?
After 1.e4, the second player can sidestep your preparation with an
offbeat opening, and take the game into strange positions where they know
every trick in the book. For the unprepared, that's a disaster waiting to happen.
But with
Grandmaster Simon Williams and
International Master Richard Palliser as your opening coaches...
Running into sidelines becomes an excellent opportunity to flex your attacking skills and rack up points in style!
The duo has enabled players all over the world to pump up their openings and overall performance.
Their streamlined repertoires allow time-strapped enthusiasts to start every game strong...while their
engine-powered novelties give competitive players the edge they need in tournaments.
This time, GM Williams and IM Palliser show you how to turn up the pressure against lesser known (and dodgy) counters to 1.e4. So you...
Come Out Of The Opening With
A Ready-Made Attack!
Grandmaster Gambits 1.e4 Part 2 builds on the overall strategy of part one:
Play attacking chess to maximize your winning chances!
Make no mistake.
The authors settle for the clear and
objectively best solution if one exists. But when the position offers many choices, they head for exciting lines that "invest" a tiny amount of material (i.e. a pawn or two) in exchange for big-time dynamic returns...
From total domination of the center, pieces in "ready to strike" positions, to a raging initiative that lasts
all game long!
Part one of the series took on the
tried and
tested big four.
In part two, GM Williams and IM Palliser put the spotlight on anti 1.e4 sidelines...and arm you with strategies that:
⚔️
Deny the Scandinavian of its usual targets in the center. So you can develop your kingside and castle almost on
auto-pilot. With your most precious piece tucked away safely, you're ready to rip apart the opposing king's cover.
⚔️
Blast the Pirc and Modern to bits with Harry the h-pawn leading the charge. This
direct and
energetic plan wastes no time bringing your h1-rook into the game. If Black is "cooperative," you could have a near-
winning attack as early as move six!
⚔️
Tame the Black Lion and strip the second player of castling rights with 5.Qxd8+. After which, that black king on d8 will never be completely safe, while your pieces glide to their best squares
with a gain of time.
⚔️
Drive Alekhine players nuts with Simon's pet line 3.Qf3. This early queen sortie...combined with a
disruptive pawn sacrifice on e6...turns Black's airtight structure into Swiss cheese!
PLUS, you also get move-by-move blueprints for
beating oddballs, like the
Nimzowitsch Defense (1...Nc6),
Owen's Defense (1...b6), and
St. George's Defense (1...a6).
Grandmaster Gambits 1.e4 Part 2 has
460 trainable variations and
