You do not need to memorize complicated variations. This repertoire chooses the exchange variations 3.cxd5 whenever possible. White has solid classical development that avoids the sharpest variations in favor of solid lines. You get a consistent plan with 200 diagrams and hundreds of additional suggested moves. Most of the time White develops the dark squared bishop with Bg5 or Bf4 and Nf3. The repertoire follows repeatable sound choices. Queens Gambit Playbook resembles the London System except White has an open c-file. The Queens Gambit Exchange Variation has the same pawn structure for White that Black has in a Caro-Kann Exchange Variation. In the Queen Gambit Playbook, you are up a tempo as White. This Playbook is a tool to help you prepare to play your openings. The 200 diagrams in this playbook cover the variations that you are most likely to face. It's White's move in every diagram. Reasonable moves for White follow with suggested continuations. Be prepared!

Book excerpt: There was a time when the Kings Gambit was the favorite chess opening of every attacking player. In the glory days of Paul Morphy it was considered almost cowardly to play anything else. Legends such as Spassky and Bronstein kept the flame burning in the 20th century, but its popularity faded, as many players are wary of sacrificing a pawn for long-term compensation. There are honorable exceptions whose games prove that this ancient weapon can still draw blood: Morozevich, Short, Zvjaginsev and ex-US Champion Yury Shulman are world-class players who attack with the Kings Gambit.

Book excerpt: Open Game Tactics gives you 500 positions from actual games that use combinations and checkmates in the opening. If you're good at tactics, you're good at chess. Opening theory may help you start well. Endgame knowledge may help you finish well. Tactical skill helps you win games and avoid losses. Open Game chess games begin 1.e4 e5. This book covers the Petroff, Italian Game, Kings Gambit, Philidor Defence, Bishops Opening, Vienna Game, Two Knights Defence, Scotch Game, Evans Gambit, Max Lange Attack, Four Knights Game, Latvian Gambit, Elephant Gambit, Danish Gambit, Center Game, and Damiano Defence. The Open Game teaches you to fight for a win. It best resembles hand to hand combat in chess. Attacks come quickly. This book shows winning positions played by masters throughout chess history with dozens of games included that played in 2020. Tactics include pins, forks, removing the defender, attacking two pieces at the same time, and threatening to mate your opponent. The easiest path to tactical success is to recognize patterns that occur frequently in your favorite chess openings.Everyone knows a few positions. Here's 500 in the Open Games. This Open Game Tactics book does not include the Ruy Lopez. That has its own 500 positions in a separate book (see my Ruy Lopez Tactics book). Tactical knowledge helps you to improve your winning chances. Take your opponent's pieces. Pick off the pawns. Mate the king! To advance in chess, you need more than dumb luck. You need tactics. The purpose of this book is to illustrate and teach Open Game tactics. I assume you can read algebraic chess notation. The White pieces are positioned at the bottom of each diagram. Above each diagram note who can move and win. It's either White to play a tactical move or Black to play a tactical move. Some moves are simple and easy. Others are subtle and tricky. That's chess - lots of obvious moves and lots of sneaky moves. Look at each diagram. It's a key position ready for a tactical win. The final moves are in bold with a brief analysis or comment. Chess engines were used to ensure the accuracy of the analysis. Follow the moves in your mind. The skill to visualize each new position without moving pieces improves your tactical strength. Games are arranged by ECO (Encyclopedia of Chess Openings) coding (C20 to C59) from less popular to more popular moves.All the World Champions played the Open Games at some point. It's a good opening for winners. Are you ready to win? Buy Open Game Tactics, pick up your e-pawn, and go win!

Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller 'A sensation ... a rollicking tale well told' - The Times At the heart of Born to Run lies a mysterious tribe of Mexican Indians, the Tarahumara, who live quietly in canyons and are reputed to be the best distance runners in the world; in 1993, one of them, aged 57, came first in a prestigious 100-mile race wearing a toga and sandals. A small group of the world's top ultra-runners (and the awe-inspiring author) make the treacherous journey into the canyons to try to learn the tribe's secrets and then take them on over a course 50 miles long. With incredible energy and smart observation, McDougall tells this story while asking what the secrets are to being an incredible runner. Travelling to labs at Harvard, Nike, and elsewhere, he comes across an incredible cast of characters, including the woman who recently broke the world record for 100 miles and for her encore ran a 2:50 marathon in a bikini, pausing to down a beer at the 20 mile mark.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an update of Schandorff's 2009 book, Playing the Queen's Gambit. The power of the Queens Gambit is beyond question, even though it allows some serious defences -- the Slav and Semi-Slav are favoured by the elite, Kasparov was playing the Queen's Gambit Accepted until he retired, and the Queen's Gambit Declined has been trusted for a century. The principled way for White to build a repertoire after 1.d4 d5 2.c4 is to play the critical main lines. Take as much space as possible -- no compromises. The Tarrasch, Chigorin, Albin and all minor lines are also met with the same vigour -- this is a complete White repertoire after 1.d4 d5 2.c4.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dutch Defence is one of Black's most combative responses to 1.d4, and the Stonewall is the boldest version of this opening. Black immediately seizes space in the centre and clamps down on the e4-square, laying the foundations for a complicated strategic battle. Many players believe the Stonewall to be a substandard opening, naively assuming that the e5-outpost and bad light-squared bishop must give White the advantage. GM Nikola Sedlak disagrees, and in Playing the Stonewall Dutch he shares the insights that have helped him to rack up a healthy plus score from Black's side. In addition to providing a complete repertoire in the main lines of the Stonewall, this book also offers useful guidance on dealing with Anti-Dutch variations and various move-order subtleties.
