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.
The Limburg Open in Maastricht was a great event with 600 participants, making it the second tournament in the Netherlands after the famous Tata Steel tournament in Wijk aan Zee. This year there was also a closed group and no less than two GM norms were achieved: Thibaut Vandebussche from Belgium scored half a point more than required and Julian Kramer from Germany scored exactly the required 6.5 out of 9. Our game of the week is Julian's decisive win from round 7.
Warm-up question: What would you play here with Black?
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.
