A practical repertoire for the positional player after 1.d4 Vol.1 – 3, Sipke Ernst (English)
Are you tired of facing long engine lines and well-known theoretical complications? Then I have something interesting for you. In this video course, I will show you a repertoire after 1.d4 that aims to be practical and well-suited for the positional player. I give promising mainlines for white against all black’s main replies to 1.d4 that are engine-proof, easy to learn and can be played almost instantly. Moreover, if black deviates, then white obtains a promising initiative and black will have to suffer an unpleasant defence. More
