The Benko Gambit - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The Benko Gambit is one of the most dynamic chess defenses for Black against 1.d4 and is favored by world class players such as Veselin Topalov and Alexander Khalifman, both of whom have used it to score memorable victories. The dynamic counterplay Black receives in return for the sacrificed queenside pawn provides definite compensation, often lasting all the way into the endgame.

In this entertaining and instructive book, Jan Pinski explains the core ideas of the opening, and clearly identifies the critical lines every player needs to know in order to play it with success.
