The Torre Attack

The Torre Attack is an extremely effective way of taking your opponent into an uncomfortable situation right from move one. White plays three simple moves 1 d4 2 Nf3 and 3 Bg5, avoiding a lot of dangerous variations that Black can often play against 1 d4 and 2 c4.

This opening is perfect for players who do not have unlimited time to memorise hours and hours of theory. In this DVD, GM Simon Williams shows you how to play this opening in an aggressive yet simple way. Concentrating on learning being fun yet effective. The Torre Attack works perfectly against most systems and will be a perfect accompanying DVD to the London System or Colle.

Trompowsky

The move 2.Bg5 was named after the Brazilian player Octavio Trompowsky (1897–1984), who employed it in the 1930s and the 1940s. The move led only a shadowy existence right up to the 1980s, but then some free-thinking English grandmasters, above all Julian Hodgson, took it up and demonstrated the vitality of this system, which has since that point become firmly established.
