Are you looking for something a bit different?
Do you wish to surprise your opponent on the first move?
Do you enjoy playing creatively from the beginning of the game?
Look no further than 1 b4!
With this aggressive pawn lunge White takes the game into relatively unknown territory and forces Black players onto their own devices. Those facing 1 b4 are not allowed to fall into the comfort zone of established theory; instead they have to think for themselves from very early on. This opening has been seriously neglected by chess literature... until now. In this landmark book, Yury Lapshun and Nick Conticello take an in-depth look at 1 b4 and its many variations.
The authors use illustrative games to highlight key ideas and tactics for both sides.
They also provide a practical and fun-to-play repertoire for White, offering options against both Black"es main defences and his more offbeat tries. Read this book and confound your opponents with 1 b4! - A complete repertoire for White
- Presents answers to all of Black"es possibilities
- Ideal for ambitious and adventurous players
