Why memorising endless theory might not be the best path - and how an idea-based repertoire can change your game.

Why memorising endless theory might not be the best path - and how an idea-based repertoire can change your game.
“Dynamic Play” is your ultimate guide to mastering aggressive strategies and dominating the board. With practical tips, exercises, and game analysis, you’ll gain the skills and confidence to outplay any opponent.
This course isn’t just another addition to your chess library—it’s the definitive guide to elevate your endgame play. From fundamental principles to advanced techniques, “Practical Endgames” covers every aspect of endgame strategy.
The King’s Indian Attack is full of positional and tactical ideas and often an unpleasant surprise for the opponent.
In the actual DVD Bologan covered all answers by Black against 3.Bc4, especially 3...Bc5, presenting all relevant possibilities for White.
Starting with 1.Nf3 the Reti is designed for those players who like strategy, manoeuvres and plans. Bologan presents a repertoire based on 1.Nf3 giving you options for all major replies.
The Modern Pirc is actually a mixture of the Caro-Kann and the Pirc. In many lines Black combines the ideas of the classical Pirc in which the fianchettoed bishop is important with the Caro-Kann idea to fight for the center with c6-d5.
Strategy, combinations, attack and defence, sacrifices and marvellous manoeuvres – exciting chess is all about the Najdorf!
Bologan: "If you study this DVD carefully and solve the interactive exercises you will also enrich your chess vocabulary, your King’s Indian vocabulary, build up confidence in the King’s Indian and your chess and win more games."
Victor Bologan shows from blacks point of view all Anti-Berlin setups as well as how to gain advantage in the Berlin Defence.
