News Review - England vs. Germany was like a chess game, Indian Superpower, and Gold & Silver

by Arne Kaehler
7/2/2021 – Lawrence Trent is English, Arne Kaehler is German - time to analyse the recent Euro 2020 football game clash of both nations, which, funnily enough, had a couple of similarities to a grandmaster chess game. Furthermore, the "Wunderkinder" from India are breaking world records, winning tournaments, and are on top of the tables these last weeks. Lawrence Trent gives an analysis of the youngest chess Grandmaster Abhimanyu vs. Mendonca. We also take a look at the Goldmoney and Silver Lake tournaments, and talk about Larry Kaufman's interesting life.
On this DVD IM Trent shows the Albin Counter-Gambit (1.d4 d5 2.c4 e5). Trent found a number of extremely dangerous Theoretical Novelties which will truly put the Albin Counter-Gambit back on the map.
