The Stonewall Attack in 60 Minutes

The Stonewall Attack (d4 followed by e3 and possibly f4) is an old-fashioned opening, almost forgotten, not thought to give White any advantage at all. Yet it still packs a punch and is not so easy to defend against. It is especially good for club players. The key is flexible thinking by White, who needs to show an appreciation of when to launch the Stonewall Attack and when not. This 60 minutes video course will introduce you to a range of queens pawn ideas and will broaden your repertoire, adding new weapons to your opening arsenal. As such, it will be useful to players of all levels, as it does not take much time and effort to absorb the key strategies This will be a new and at the same time old chess adventure.

Dutch Defence

After 1.d4 f5 we have the Dutch Defence. It is not as popular as the Queen’s Gambit (1...d5 2.c4) or the Indian defences (1...Nf6), but there is one thing the three moves have in common: Black would like to prevent 2.e4. In addition, in the Dutch ...Nf6 is intended to follow, which will further increase the control over this important central square.
