Attack like a Super Grandmaster
In this Fritztrainer: “Attack like a Super GM†with Gukesh we touch upon all aspects of his play, with special emphasis on how you can become a better attacking player.
While Gukesh has won the Candidates and is currently number 6 in the world, but Arjun Erigaisi, who has been playing a lot of tournaments lately, is officially India's number one and the world's number 5.
Erigaisi is currently playing in the Sigeman & Co tournament in Sweden, and to get an idea of how he is doing, we have chosen his game against Maurizzi as our Game of the Week.
Warm-up question: What would you play here with White?
In this opening Black opts for active piece play and is not afraid to fight for the initiative from an early stage. One of the many good features of this opening is that Black is often the side which controls the pace of the game.
