The Vienna Gambit DVD, Foxy Openings 159

En ny DVD med populær presentasjon av skarpe åpningsvarianter for hvit det som kalles Wienergambit i Wienerparti etter 1.e4 e5 2.Sc3 Sc6 (eller Sf6) 3.f4. Her er mye taktikk å forsøke å overraske motspillerne med.

IM Andrew Martin er en spesialist blant annet på å finne fram spreke varianter og det vi kan kalle nærmest åpningsfeller i sjakk. Variantene er ofte best i lyn- og hurtigsjakk. Denne DVD'en vil antagelig falle mest i smak for spillere innen ratingspekteret fra omlag 800 til 1800.

Utgiverens omtale:

The vast majority of chessplayers play for fun; for them chess is enjoyment and not a professional endeavour. If you are running aground against 1 e4 e5 , then why not try the sharp Vienna Gambits suggested by IM Andrew Martin on this DVD? Pressure is brought to bear on Black in unusual ways at an early stage and there is nothing more enjoyable than getting on to the attack early with White and watching the opponent struggle.

The Vienna is like playing a surprise King’s Gambit where Black will be caught off guard on how to respond. This opening is easy to learn and contains plenty of quick crushing attacks which can end the game right out of the opening.

Reviving old and forgotten ideas in the modern era can be a very effective way of discovering winning weapons!
