New: The Super Solid Slav Defence by Sipke Ernst
When you add the Slav to your repertoire, you get an opening with a solid foundation. However, that doesn’t mean you will get a boring game. On the contrary, this opening often leads to very dynamic play. Therefore, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that many of the world class players of today, including Magnus Carlsen, Fabiano Caruana and Alireza Firouzja have played it frequently, and used it to play for a win against their contemporaries. So grab this DVD and enrich your knowledge in the Solid Slav Defence to add a new opening to an ever-growing theoretical arsenal. Photo: ChessBase
The Super Solid Slav Defence
We get the Slav after the moves 1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6. This video course will focus on 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.Nc3 and now dxc4, but the white alternatives leading up to the mainline are also discussed in great detail. This video course will explain how to handle the closed positions that happen after 4.e3, but also how to deal with white’s gambit play in the Tolush-Geller Gambit. Moreover, after watching this video course you will feel like an expert on IQP-positions.
