French Grandmaster Christian Bauer presents two repertoire ideas which served him well at the Vandoeuvre Open at the beginning of the year. He recommends countering the Grünfeld with a sharp line of the London System: 1.d4 ♞f6 2.♗f4 g6 3.♘c3 d5 4.e3 ♝g7 5.h4!? And he explains why he likes the move 8…♛e8 in the Nimzo-Indian with 4.♕c2.
On this DVD GM Yannick Pelletier offers Black a repertoire against the London System that you can employ no matter which opening (Systems with d5, systems with g6, Queen's Indian, Queen's Gambit, Benoni, Benko, Dutch) you usually play against 1.d4 followed by 2.c4. Thematic games explain and illustrate the theory and ideas of the repertoire Pelletier proposes.
In an addition to his recently released "Anti-London" DVD, Yannick Pelletier explains why the move-order 1.d4 d5 2.♘f3 ♞f6 3.♗f4 c5 4.c3 ♞c6 5.e3 is no longer popular on master level, and how Black gets very comfortable play with a few energetic moves! You start the video of your choice by clicking on the "Play" button.

By the way: all in all the videos on the new CBM Extra 188 have a run-time of almost two hours!
And there is the "Lucky Bag"! With an interesting video interview with Praggnanandhaa Rameshbabu. Last year, at the age of 12 years, 10 months, and 13 days, "Pragg" became one of the youngest grandmasters of all time and together with IM Sagar Shah the Indian super-talent shows and explains four games on this video that helped to get his third and final GM norm.
Our editorial team also selected a number of annotated games which all are special. Michal Krasenkow, for example, annotates games from the Gibraltar Masters, including two games by the winner of the Gibraltar Open, Russian shooting star Vladislav Artemiev!
