6/3/2013 – In part two of this series British GM Daniel King provides us with a repertoire of attacking lines against the Scandinavian, Alekhine’s Defence, the Petroff, Philidor, Pirc and the Modern Defence (1. e4 g6). After the DVD was complete it occurred to him that he should have included the deadly Philidor Counter Gambit. What to do? Daniel has now published it online, and you can watch it for free.

Daniel
King – Power Play 19:
Attack with 1.e4 Part II
This DVD provides you with a repertoire of attacking lines against:
The Scandinavian
Alekhine’s Defence
The Petroff
The Philidor
The Pirc
The Modern Defence (1. e4 g6).
Many of these openings are very popular in club chess, yet they are often
underestimated by players of the white pieces. Using his wealth of experience
playing with 1.e4, grandmaster Daniel King explains the openings and provides
you with an aggressive system against each of them.
This is the second part of Daniel King’s project ‘Attack with
1.e4’ (part I dealt with the Sicilian, the French, The Caro Kann and
1...e5). King’s recommendations aim to put your opponent under pressure
right from the start of the game, and when players are under pressure, mistakes
occur. This is a practical repertoire – if we study openings we want
to be sure to use them in our games. After just a few moves, you will be
dictating play. Video running time: 5 hours 24 min.
Sample: Daniel King Power Play 19 - Attack with 1.e4 Vol.2
Daniel writes: "My latest Power Play DVD has just been released: 'Attack
With 1 e4 - part II'. The DVD consists of my repertoire recommendations
for White against the Scandinavian, the Alekhine's Defence, the Petroff,
the Philidor, the Modern and the Pirc. But it seems that I overlooked something.
How could I forget the deadly Philidor Counter Gambit...? I thought I'd
better put that right in this clip."
