In this video course, twenty-nine examples with multiple questions are presented in the interactive format, which is ideal for a range of playing strengths. Step by step you will be taken through the complex positions.
This week I will analyse the fourth game of the match between Ding Liren and Ian Nepomniachtchi. White’s opening choice was excellent, exploring a relatively unknown line from the English Opening.
