Robert Ris: "In this week's show I have a look at the game Aditya-Erdogmus. A very brave and ambitious relatively new opening concept (6...f6!?) in the Caro-Kann Advance Variation enabled the young Turkish player to seize the initiative from the start. This stunning victory in only 32 moves with Black helped him to become the highest rated player U13 of all time, breaking Judit Polgar's 35 years old world record!"

60m The London System

If you are looking for a new attacking plan against the popular Queen’s Gambit, then this download is for you. Completely new ideas after 1.d4 d5 2.Bf4 turn the solid London system into a serious weapon. New approaches and Fritz analyses will catch out an unprepared opponent. Henrik Danielsen used this system to win the Icelandic blitz championship in 2011. Some strong GMs and IMs didn't realise the danger before it was too late. Even after Black’s best defence White will be able to fight for an advantage. After watching 60 minutes you have a total opening plan against the Queen’s Gambit.
