“Best by test: 1.e4” (Bobby Fischer)

by ChessBase
7/24/2020 – Bobby Fischer exclusively opened his games with 1.e4 as White. 1.e4 gives White a dynamic structure and is the main weapon in several of the top player's arsenals, including Vishy Anand's. When preparing an opening, it is always important to learn theory, main themes and concepts. Let us help you do exactly that.
