The Modern Bogo 1.d4 e6 - Antic & Maksimovic

They did it! Dejan Antic and Branimir Maksimovic have created a complete chess opening repertoire for Black players in only two books. 

First they wrote the acclaimed The Modern French (against 1.e4). Now The Modern Bogo provides Black players with a comprehensive answer to 1.d4. The two books complement each other perfectly.

The point is that the authors recommend to answer 1.d4 with the direct 1...e6, for the follow-up  2.c4 Bb4+. In this way they avoid complex theoretical Nimzo-Indian lines and enable both amateur and professional players to find their own way in little-explored variations. 

The Modern Bogo covers all the possibilities for White after 1.d4 e6... except for 2.e4, after which you should play the French!

Antic and Maksimovic have done a massive amount of research, and found many new strategic concepts and attacking plans. All of them are explained clearly and thoroughly. 

You will find that this opening not only gives you good chances to equalize as Black, but also many opportunities to play for a win.

VIGORITO - The Sicilian Dragon

VIGORITO - The Sicilian Dragon

Bon, voilà du plus animé Avec le Dragon, il y a deux bons conseils à toujours garder en mémoire : si vous voulez le jouer, ne jouez que ça (celui-ci est de Tiviakov, qui sait de quoi il parle) ; et si vous voulez le jouer, lisez tout ce qui sort sur le sujet (celui-là est de moi, mais je crois que personne ne le contestera). Car la créature est multiforme, et elle change vite : ce deuxième volume de la série Chess Developments, qui fait le point sur toutes les lignes chaudes de l'attaque yougoslave, est donc le bienvenu..
