A World Champion's Repertoire against the Queen's Gambit Declined
This DVD offers a complete repertoire for handling this solid opening, often featuring a dynamic approach to pose the opponent more practical problems. Both of the main continuations 3...Nf6 and 3...Be7 are covered in two separate parts.
In tonight's Fast & Furious show we will have a look at a modern treatment (6...♝d6) of the QGD Exchange Variation, as recently there have been played some wonderful attacking games by black in this line. Who would have ever thought this opening would become an attacking weapon for the black side! Furthermore, we will also discuss some other games in this opening, as an update of my DVD A World Champions Repertoire against the QGD.
The live show is free to watch and available on-demand for ChessBase Premium accounts.
