And scored stunning successes against "booked to the teeth" elite-level competition.
Best part? The system is...
So Simple Even A Beginner Can
Play And WIN With It
Here's the plan:
Build a stronghold in the center by putting your pawns on e4, d3, and c3. Rally your troops behind it with Nf3, Nbd2, and Be2. Follow the same plan as Black - and that's it!
From here, you're ready to play chess with unshakable confidence in your fortified position...while cutting down your opening study and maintenance work by half.
PLUS, with esteemed trainers International Master Gerard Welling and FIDE Master Steve Giddins to guide you, you'll know just how to snowball your strong start into a winning advantage.
Inside Side-stepping Mainline Theory, you'll learn how to:
🔀 Seize control of the center by marching up your a- and b-pawns. With a little "cooperation" from your opponent, you might just WIN a pawn in a dozen moves or less.
🔀 Build in-roads into the enemy position with perfectly timed pawn breaks. After which, your pieces burst into action.
🔀 Mount increasing positional pressure against the closed center by playing on the wings...switching from one flank to another to stretch the defenses til they break.
🔀 Cover ALL your bases and spring-load your position with the "Pickett Shuffle." Once carried out successfully, you're ready to rip open the position and invade critical squares.
🔀 Punish flank openings by taking over the center yourself with d3-d4/...d6-d5. With a strong duo of pawns to guarantee you a space advantage, maneuvering your pieces to their BEST squares becomes a breeze.
🔀 Take the sting out of scary-looking sacrifices on f7, secure your bounty, and whip up an attack yourself!
🔀 Release the tension at the right moment with exd5/...exd4, unleashing your rooks and bishops against the enemy center.
The bonus: 90(!) complete grandmaster games which show you exactly how to play - and "milk" - the arising middlegames and endgames for points.
Whether you're looking for a low-maintenance repertoire you can play against anyone...or a sideline to take heavily prepared opponent's out of book...
