On the Power Play Show tonight: a game from the winner of the recent tournament in
Sitges, Anton Korobov. Do you like playing the Najdorf? Then why not play it with White as well...
For a little warm-up, here's a position to solve.
When choosing an opening repertoire, there are days when you want to play for a win with Black, when you want to bear down on your opponent’s position with a potentially crushing attack. The Najdorf is perfect for just such occasions. Strategy, combinations, attack and defence, sacrifices and marvellous manoeuvres — exciting chess is all about the Najdorf!
