A comprehensive study book for players who would like to cultivate a reliable yet initiative-seeking opening repertoire as White, based on the opening moves 1 d4 followed by 2 c4. Specific main lines and side-variations are given to combat Black's possible choices of the King's, Queen's and Bogoljubow-lndian defences as well as the Modern Benoni and Benko Gambit.The author also recommends promising methods against the various Black defences to the Queen's Gambit as well as a number of offbeat lines.
A practical opening guide for competitive players who prefer to build their games on solid foundations rather than indulge in risky speculation.
Richard Palliser is an international master and recipient of a special British Chess Federation young player's award for achievement. In addition to being a very active tournament and match player he also writes regularly for CHESS magazine and other periodicals and is noted for his theoretical knowledge and analytical ability.
Many players stick to slightly offbeat lines as White in a bid to avoid having to learn too much theory, but then soon discover that Black can comfortably equalise in some way or another. At this moment it is all too easy to switch to an alternative unusual system only to find, after some initial success at the local club, that opponents will come up with an antidote to that as well! Instead White can issue a greater challenge by adopting broader based and slightly more 'theoretical' systems which offer every possibility of obtaining an enduring positional advantage and/or attacking prospects.
By commencing with 1 d4 and 2 c4, White presents a direct challenge to Black and yet play does not have to be too theoretical. In fact throughout the book, the emphasis of the notes is on highlighting key plans and structures so that White players can quickly understand the arising positions as well as, if not better than, their prospective opponents. The lines given are all sound, but are not at the cutting edge of theory and so one Informant novelty will not refute a whole variation overnight! Coverage at times is quite detailed but this is to provide the stronger club player with enough theory to employ these lines with confidence, whilst at the same time illustrating several examples of typical themes in each variation.
As I have discovered in my own games, the weapons presented here are quite easy to understand but they are by no means innocuous! Indeed I believe the repertoire as a whole will enable readers to gain good practical results.
This work has been an enjoyable, albeit quite long, process and could not have been completed without some much appreciated help from my editor Jimmy Adams. I was also grateful, at some time or other, to the following for their thoughts and advice: Paul Hopwood, Malcolm Pein, Mike Twyble, Sam Collins, Peter Wells, James Vigus, Angus Dunnington, Kieran Smallbone, John Emms, Jonathan Smith and Chris Ward.
So, on with our journey through the openings - and good luck playing 1 d4!
