I like it! | 0 Comments

6/23/2013 – In round five Indian GM Koneru Humpy drew her game and was overtaken by Anna Muszchuk, who defeated former women's world champion Antoaneta Stefanova. In round six the two played each other, and Humpy beat Anna to regain the lead, this time alone. Batchimeg Tuvshintugs of Mongolia is the surprise player who stand to gain a bunch of rating points – and who has the nicest shoes.

Beat the Slav the classical way

On this DVD Rustam Kasimdzhanov investigates in detail the line 4. dxc4, in which he has great experience. Showing selected grandmaster games, the ex-world champion shares his knowledge with the viewer to explain how White has to place his pieces and which plans he has at his disposal.Learn the secrets of the dxc4-line and improve your chances of success with 1.d4
