against all white systems in the Modern Benoni. The target audience is club
players with a rating of 1500-2400.
Thanks to Ziegler’s research you will find many surprisingly simple solutions
in some lines, while in the critical lines which are being currently debated

With this DVD to back up your repertoire in the Benoni you will combat White
from the beginning with counter-blows, strikes, positional traps or deep strategic
plans, all that is necessary to hunt White down!

ChessBase DVDs – The Art of the Exchange Sacrifice 11.01.2012 – This month in Chess
Cafe Steven B. Dowd is reviewing ChessBase DVDs that "show the power
of original ideas in chess, their categorization, and learning how strong
players formulate and classify these ideas will make you a better player."
In the current review he looks at Ari Ziegler's DVD, which gets only four
stars ("good") because of certain shortcomings, but actually
deserves six.
Killer stuff in the French Defence 08.09.2006 – The French Defence is very well
suited for players who do not have time to continuously keep up with latest
opening theory. You can focus on understanding of positional ideas and
strategy, rather than worry about tactics. Buy this new DVD training course
on the French
Defence by IM Ari Ziegler, or read this review.
Hans Tikkanen is Swedish Champion 2011 27.07.2011 – The last round of this year's
Swedish Championship was fraught with drama and excitement. Player A was
in the lead and needed a draw, player B was set for a GM norm if he drew
his final game against player C. Both A and B lost, and player C, newly
titled GM Hans Tikkanen, finished first. We have some wonderful analysis
by Ari Ziegler to play through in our final
report.
