The Leningrad Dutch Defence is a dynamic and aggressive opening choice for Black, perfect for players who want to add some adventure and spice to their repertoire. Unlike its relative, the Stonewall Dutch (…f5-e6-d5), the Leningrad Dutch setup (…f5-g6-d6) is more flexible and more risky, having similarities with the double-edged King’s Indian Defence. This course covers the Leningrad Dutch as a 3-in-1 weapon, as it can be used against many common first moves: 1. d4, 1. c4 and 1. Nf3. The course includes in-depth theory, opening disasters for both sides, interactive tactical exercises, model games, and practice positions! • Video running time: 9 hours 50 minutes (English) • With interactive training including video feedback • Extra: Training with ChessBase apps - Memorize the opening repertoire and play key positions against Fritz on various levels Including download & stream for iPad, tablet etc: can be unlocked with imprinted key System requirements: Minimum: Pentium III 1 GHz, 1 GB RAM, Windows 8.1, DirectX9 graphic card with 256 MB RAM, DVD-ROM drive, Windows Media Player 9 and internet connection for program activation.

Wer kennt es nicht? Man bereitet sich auf eine spannende Partie im offenen Najdorf-Sizilianer vor und plötzlich stellt der Gegner doch nur eine der scheinbar unzähligen Nebenvarianten aufs Brett, um die Najdorf-Hauptvarianten zu vermeiden. Muss man sich darüber ärgern? Auf gar keinen Fall! Dieser Fritztrainer bietet Ihnen die perfekte Ergänzung für jedes Sizilianisch- oder Najdorf-Repertoire und deckt sämtliche Nebenvarianten ab, die Weiß nach 1. e4 c5 probiert hat, um den offenen Najdorf zu vermeiden. Haben Sie bereits die beiden Fritztrainer zum offenen Najdorf nach 5… a6, steht Ihnen somit ein vollständiges und lückenloses Großmeisterrepertoire gegen 1. e4 zur Verfügung! Wir starten unsere Reise durch die Anti-Najdorfs mit den wichtigen und sehr populären Alternativen im 2. Zug, allen voran dem Grand-Prix-Angriff (2. Sc3) und der Alapin-Variante (2. c3), aber auch allen weiteren Nebenvarianten im 2. Zug, die Weiß bereits probiert hat - auch wenn sie vielleicht nicht den Najdorf, sondern einen anderen Sizilianer spielen, ist also etwas für Ihr Repertoire mit dabei! Nach dem Hauptzug 2. Sf3 d6 geht es weiter mit den Alternativen zu 3. d4, insbesondere dem extrem beliebten Zug 3. Lb5+. Auch die Varianten 3. d4 cxd4 4. Dxd4!? sowie der als Überraschungswaffe beliebte Zug 5. f3 werden abgedeckt und darüber hinaus selbstverständlich alle weiteren seltenen Varianten, die Weiß auf dem Weg zur Hauptvariante gespielt hat - bis zur Erreichung der Ausgangsstellung des Najdorfs nach 5… a6 kann sie damit nichts mehr aus der Ruhe bringen! - Video-Laufzeit: 4 Stunden 30 Minuten (Deutsch) - Training mit ChessBase apps - Repertoire erlernen und Schlüsselstellungen auf verschiedenen Leveln ausspielen - Inklusive Download & Stream für iPad, Tablet etc: kann mit eingedrucktem Key freigeschaltet werden Systemvoraussetzungen: Mindestens: Pentium III 1 GHz, 1 GB RAM, Windows 8.1, DirectX9 Grafikkarte mit 256 MB RAM, DVD-ROM Laufwerk, Windows Media Player 9 und Internetverbindung zur Programmaktivierung.

In this video course you are making your first steps in mastering strategic concepts. As the legendary player Philidor (1726-1795) said: ‘’pawns are the soul of chess’’ and in this course on basic chess strategy you will see his quote is still true today! After a brief introduction to each piece, covering their strengths and shortcomings, our focus will be on pawns and their specific functions (protecting your king, supporting pieces and restricting opponent mobility) and how they impact the course of the game. Some pawns are strong, others are weak, but when is a pawn weak and how do you take advantage of it? When there are weak pawns, weak squares are never far away! What are weak squares and how do your pieces benefit from occupying such a square? A rook is a powerful piece, and in the topics “open files” and “seventh rank” you’ll see that sound positional play is closely linked with attacking chess. All these elements should be taken into consideration when planning to improve your own pieces or weaken your opponent’s position. The interactive format offers you a chance to test your knowledge! In 77 excercises you’ll be able to apply your newly acquired knowledge!

The Queen’s Indian Defence is a well-known opening for black and has remained popular and mainstream at the top level for well over a century. It has the reputation of being solid and was used as a main weapon against 1.d4 by many strong players during the 1970s, including the ex-World Champion Anatoly Karpov. Openings like the Queen’s Indian will never be refuted and can be used throughout one’s chess career. Personally, I have had great results with the Queen’s Indian and I continue to use it often. In this video course we’ll have a look at the Queen’s Indian after 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 b6. We’ll explore the ins and outs of the possible White setups against this rock-solid opening. Instead of learning forcing lines, the Queen’s Indian is about plans and ideas which make it easy to remember. Let’s deep dive into what I consider to be the most solid lines, and be prepared to play The Queen’s Indian in your own games!

For a chess player, chess pieces are like specific tools in a toolbox. We need to know how best to use them, just as a craftsman knows his tools. We shouldn’t use a screwdriver to hammer in a nail; and we shouldn’t position the knights on the edge of the board. Knights are mysterious creatures. They add irrational content to any position. However, in this video tutorial you will learn how to tame them. We will focus on how to create an outpost for a Knight and how to maneuver with this piece to get maximum activity from it. We will talk about the knight’s soul mates: the queen and the passed pawn. We will also focus on positions where knights are vulnerable or hopelessly passive: typically when they are behind the pawn chains in which knight are vulnerable or hopelessly passive: typically, this happens when they are located behind the pawn chain.

Viktor Korchnoi ( 1931 - 2016 ) was undoubtedly one of the most fascinating personalities in the chess world. The two-time World Championship finalist played successful and attractive chess, even into old age. In 2004 he visited ChessBase and recorded his video biography “My life for chess”. With these recordings Korchnoi created a living memorial to himself and his great chess career. This historical document is now available again: remastered by ChessBase, playable on many platforms (Windows, Mac) or as a stream and supplemented with a game database. Korchnoi presents many of his most brilliant efforts from the years 1949-2005, among them, games against Smyslov, Geller, Tal, Huebner, Karpov, Kasparov, Spassky and Short. In each case Korchnoi describes in detail the story of the game, never beating around the bush, sometimes criticising his opponents harshly, but also lavishing praise on them when due. Embedded in the game commentaries are many details of Korchnoi’s biography; for instance, before commenting on his game against Spassky, the veteran speaks extensively about his personal relationship with the exworld champion. Throughout these lectures, you can feel Korchnoi’s enduring love for chess. Whenever the great master gets to the heart of an opening (King’s Indian, English and French) or shows an astonishing move, one can see the joy sparkling in his eyes. Little wonder – no other chess genius has lived chess as intensively as “Viktor the Terrible”. A must-have for every chess fan! Video running time: 7 h 36 min.

Looking for a realistic way to play for a win with Black against 1.e4 without taking unnecessary risks? The Taimanov Sicilian is a reliable system, and hence one of the best options out there! This video course offers you a complete repertoire for Black against the Open Sicilian: 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 e6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nc6. Compared to many other main variations of the Sicilian, the Taimanov Variation is a flexible option which doesn’t feature too many long, forced variations that you need to memorise in order to maintain the balance. In fact, the aim is to get a playable position out of the opening, which offers new opportunities to outplay the opponent in the long run. Due to its rock-solid formation, Black’s position is impregnable, and White players trying for a quick attack can easily falter. The old main lines are well covered, as are the latest trends and obscure attempts - so you won’t face any unpleasant surprises! The video course is complemented with 20 exercises to test your theoretical and practical knowledge, 10 positions to play out to develop a better feeling for these types of positions, as well as a database with more than 200 model games.” Video running time: More than 9 hours With interactive training including video feedback Extra: Training with ChessBase apps – Memorize the opening repertoire and play key positions against Fritz on various levels Including download & stream for iPad, tablet etc: can be unlocked with imprinted key System requirements: Minimum: Pentium III 1 GHz, 1 GB RAM, Windows 8.1, DirectX9 graphic card with 256 MB RAM, DVD-ROM drive, Windows Media Player 9 and internet connection for program activation.

Have you always wanted to play the Sicilian as Black, but been discouraged by the abundance of options for White? Here is the solution to becoming a lifelong successful Sicilian player! In a separate course, all the critical lines of the Open Sicilian (Taimanov Variation) were covered. In this course, all the relevant Anti-Sicilians are covered in depth. Starting with the move-order 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 e6, White has been prevented from playing a variation with 3.Bb5. Popular alternatives on move 3 are tackled first (3.b3, 3.g3, Kings-Indian Attack etc.). On the second move, White has many more options to deviate from the Main Lines, but since White often has the opportunity to transpose back to the Open Variation, it’s strongly recommended to study both volumes. The lines arising from the Closed Sicilian Variation with 2.Nc3 and the Alapin (with 2.c3 or 2.Nf3 e6 3.c3) are effectively countered as well, to avoid any move-order problems. Last, but not least, popular systems at club level, e.g. the Smith-Morra and Wing Gambit should no longer be feared! The video course has been complemented with 24 exercises to test both your theoretical and practical knowledge, 10 positions to play out to develop a better feeling for these types of positions, as well as a database with over 230 model games. • Video running time: More than 7 hours • With interactive training including video feedback • Extra: Training with ChessBase apps – Memorize the opening repertoire and play key positions against Fritz on various levels Including download & stream for iPad, tablet etc: can be unlocked with imprinted key System requirements: Minimum: Pentium III 1 GHz, 1 GB RAM, Windows 8.1, DirectX9 graphic card with 256 MB RAM, DVD-ROM drive, Windows Media Player 9 and internet connection for program activation.

Viktor Korchnoi ( 1931 - 2016 ) was undoubtedly one of the most fascinating personalities in the chess world. The two-time World Championship finalist played successful and attractive chess, even into old age. In 2004 he visited ChessBase and recorded his video biography “My life for chess”. With these recordings Korchnoi created a living memorial to himself and his great chess career. This historical document is now available again: remastered by ChessBase, playable on many platforms (Windows, Mac) or as a stream and supplemented with a game database. Korchnoi presents many of his most brilliant efforts from the years 1949-2005, among them, games against Smyslov, Geller, Tal, Huebner, Karpov, Kasparov, Spassky and Short. In each case Korchnoi describes in detail the story of the game, never beating around the bush, sometimes criticising his opponents harshly, but also lavishing praise on them when due. Embedded in the game commentaries are many details of Korchnoi’s biography; for instance, before commenting on his game against Spassky, the veteran speaks extensively about his personal relationship with the exworld champion. Throughout these lectures, you can feel Korchnoi’s enduring love for chess. Whenever the great master gets to the heart of an opening (King’s Indian, English and French) or shows an astonishing move, one can see the joy sparkling in his eyes. Little wonder – no other chess genius has lived chess as intensively as “Viktor the Terrible”. A must-have for every chess fan! Video running time: 7 h 36 min.
