Muller - Finales d'échecs pour les enfants

Les lignes découlant de 1...e5 dans la partie Anglaise sont hautement représentatives de la trompeuse simplicité que nous évoquions dans la présentation du Starting out : the English. Si, techniquement parlant, l’ouverture est une Sicilienne avec couleurs inversées (bien des variantes ayant effectivement leur pendant dans la Sicilienne classique), la présence d’un temps supplémentaire oblige les deux camps à la plus grande attention et ouvre des possibilités nouvelles. Ce nouveau CD Chessbase, très copieux (330 parties commentées), vous permettra de vous faire une idée complète sur la question. Reste simplement pour les noirs un problème subsidiaire : il vous faudra apprendre un autre système pour faire face à 1.Cf3...

This complete chess set is composed with standard chess pieces in the traditional staunton style. A great chess set  with generous proportion and made from acacia wood.

The board is made from walnut wood and with annotation like in the chess clubs, perfect for analyse. Size of board is 49 cm and each square is 5 cm.

Size of chess piece is 93 mm for the king, each piece is weighted and felted.

These handy wooden pieces come in classical design, and the little weights within make them comfortable to move and hard to fall.

The history of the Queen’s Gambit is connected with the very beginnings of modern chess, the opening being cited in the earliest published books on the science of the game, such as the Göttingen manuscript (1490) and the books of Ruy Lopez (1561) and Salvio (1604). The so-called Queen’s Gambit Declined – or Refused – is, together with the Slav, the main defense in the universe of queenside openings, and shares with the aforementioned defense a well-earned reputation for being a reliable and very solid scheme.

The main aim of the present work is to show that Black can indeed obtain positions where all three results are possible. The Queen’s Gambit Declined, about a century after its golden age, is still a reliable and lively defense, where despite all the theory developed during its long existence it still holds secrets for analysts and offers new positions to enjoy a lively game, both strategically and tactically. 620 pages HARDCOVER
