Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Are You Ready for a Strong, Dynamic Line against the French For some reason, many chessplayers feel a little uncomfortable when facing the French Defense. They search for active lines against this popular black reply to 1.e4. The Monte Carlo Variation of the French might be just what fits the bill. The line begins 1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.exd5 exd5 4.c4. It is worth mentioning that many other openings, including such diverse ones as the Queen's Gambit Accepted, the English, the Petroff, etc., may also reach this position. The author, Ukrainian-French Grandmaster Vladimir Okhotnik, has had this variation in his repertoire for over 50 years and, by his own count, has played it in more than 200 serious tournament games. He now shares his extensive experience in this line. For the most part, the Monte Carlo Variation has not been covered very well in chess literature. In fact, this is the first book devoted exclusively to this variation. Thorough coverage of positional concepts as well as tactical prospects make this a must-read for both Black (how to navigate the narrow path to equality) and White (how to maximize the pressure on the opponent). If you are looking for a strong, dynamic line against the French, go exploring with the author and look no more.…
