For the practical and point-chasing Queen’s Gambit player…Here’s How To Solve The Semi-Slav Problem
Once And For All
Do you dread facing the Semi-Slav? We feel your pain.
In the Semi-Slav, Black enjoys clear-cut development… a rock-solid position free of weaknesses… and the ability to switch gears between razor-sharp and quiet positional chess.
Contrast that to White, who now faces a “darned if you do, darned if you don’t” dilemma.
Should you challenge the second player in the main lines, and press for an outright advantage? If you do, you'd be opening a Pandora's box of tactical complications, and every move you play could be your last.
If you don’t, then you'd have to pick from a bunch of less theoretical systems. All of which are "toothless"...
All but one!Inside
Seriously Shock The Semi-Slav,
Grandmaster Sipke Ernst (peak 2606 FIDE) rediscovers an anti Semi-Slav sideline from the 1930s. One that’s…
Light In Theory But
Heaps Heavy Positional Pressure!
Here’s the plan:
After the standard
1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.Nc3 e6, you’ll play
5.g3 and fianchetto your bishop on the next move.
From g2, your light-squared bishop not only puts Black’s queenside under tremendous pressure. It also sets up the e4-break to grab more space in the center.
And when you have complete control of the board, good things are bound to happen — like
winning in less than 20 moves.
Great players of the past have used this offbeat anti Semi-Slav weapon, including
Vera Menchik (1st Women’s World Chess Champion) and
Oleg Romanishin (peak 2615 FIDE, former world #5)...
While modern grandmasters
Daniil Dubov (2018 World Rapid Chess Champion) and
Dmitry Andreikin (2010 World Junior Chess Champion) play it regularly with great success.
If it’s good enough to win against the Semi-Slav at the highest level, just imagine how wickedly effective it will be in your weekend tournament.
