Mold The Pawn Structure
And Exchange Your Way To A Steady Advantage
Meeting 1.d4 with fiery tactical play sure sounds exciting. But when the board is ablaze, even the winning side may get burned!
That’s why
The Classy Semi-Tarrasch Defense doesn’t try to fight White’s fire with fire. Instead, it presses for the full point with cool and calm.
First, we meet the trendy
1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.Nf3 with the swift counterstrike,
4…c5.Next, we resolve the tension to gain a favorable pawn majority on the queenside. And... finally, we trade pieces to blunt White's attack, and highlight our superior structure.
Make no mistake. The first player will try to run you over with center pawns or checkmate your king. So the game can still get sharp
But you need not worry, because your position is robust and free from weaknesses. Plus, the course’s
492 trainable variations reach over 20 moves deep. Nothing was left to chance to keep you safe. And you might just win with a brilliant attack yourself if White presses too hard!
Beyond iron-clad analysis, Domínguez also breaks down the positional foundations of the opening. So even if you run into a move that's "not theory," your understanding will carry you to a pleasant position.
Inside, you'll see:
💎 The “little ears” which shut down enemy pieces in a big way.
💎 Proactive defense in action. How to protect your valuable queenside pawns with a preemptive strike in the center.
💎 Versatile moves which activate your rooks and freeze White's hanging pawns.
💎 How to reorganize your structure and blunt White’s attacking setup.
