Paperback. Condition: New. The Hippopotamus Defence is just what a club player needs. Its a straightforward and clear-cut chess opening that avoids the ever growing body of mainline theory. Its universal: Black can use the Hippo against virtually all of Whites choices (1.e4, 1.d4, 1.c4, 1.f4, the Colle, London, Trompowsky, Réti and others). Its not very well known and will surprise many opponents. On top of all that, the Hippo is seriously underestimated: with its characteristic double fianchetto it may look quiet, but inside there lurks a very dangerous animal. FIDE Master Alessio de Santis is one of the worlds greatest experts on the Hippo and has written a practical, well-structured and accessible manual. His book can be studied on three levels: after a first flash of 3 to 4 hours you will be familiar with the Hippos basic moves and key variations, its strategic themes and recurring manoeuvres. In the second and third stage De Santis leads you through the most important concrete lines and introduces the Semi-Hippopotamus to counter some specific White ideas. You can use the Hippo as a surprise weapon or as your main repertoire. The extensive explanations and clear conclusions make this book an easy-to-navigate manual for all club players. If you like to confront your opponents with some unexpected counter-attacks, then you need not look any further.…

Brossura. Condition: new. Bologna, 2017; br., pp. 272, ill. b/n, cm 16,5x24. L'apertura Larsen 1.b3 sta attraversando una seconda giovinezza, insieme a mosse come 1.Cf3, 1.c4, 1.f4, 1.g3 per eludere la troppa teoria che affligge le due aperture principali (1.e4, 1.d4). Essa è usata, a sorpresa, anche da Carlsen, Caruana, Nakamura e molti altri. Questo non è il solito libro di teoria delle aperture, bensì uno strumento per apprendere, in brevissimo tempo, i rudimenti necessari per giocare una nuova apertura scacchistica da inserire nel tuo repertorio, o anche solo per capirne i significati Lo scopo di apprendere l'attacco Nimzolarsen è di sfruttare l'effetto sorpresa contro uno specifico avversario, ma, allo stesso tempo, gettare i semi per accrescere in maniera stabile il proprio repertorio. Nel libro dopo la prima parte segue poi una seconda fase in cui, con poche lezioni o giorni di studio personale, vengono approfondite varianti specifiche e punti nodali, così da avere una comprensione maggiore dell'impianto.
