The Botvinnik System in the English opening

The setup for White recommended by Valeri Lilov is solid and easy to play – the thematic moves are almost always the same ones: Nge2, 0-0, Bg5 (or Be3), Nd5, Qd2. Later, according to Black’s setup, things continue with f4 or even Rac1, b4 and play on the queenside. Starting with the classic Botvinnik-Spassky, Leiden 1970, the author describes this universally employable setup in 7 videos (+ intro and conclusion).

@ChessNadal Yes, there are two ways, both of which will be covered in the second video on Cloud.

Is it possible to bulk upload or save a PGN file to a newly created cloud database?
Uploading multiple games one by one is rather tedious.

That is correct onlye4, but the feature exists nevertheless, just as the Videos section is exclusive to Premium subscribers.
onlye4 onlye4 3/29/2016 08:58

You can save PGN games. Under the notation of the game, click on PGN.

I don't like how I can't even save PGN files or try to print them from the WebApp. I can't either sort games by names or opening CODE. Still a lot to improve.
