let garry kasparov himself explain to you personally the correct way to play the Queens gambit or the najdorf. follow the great magician through the history of these classic openings, from their very birth to the very latest grandmaster praxis.

Garry KasparovHow to Play the Najdorf Vol. 1The Najdorf Variation owes a good deal of its popularity to the commitment to it of Garry Kasparov, who employed it for many years as one of his main weapons. The DVD concentrates on the famous poisoned pawn variation (after 6.Bg5 e6 7.f4 Qb6),

which has recently been undergoing a revival thanks to the efforts of top grandmasters such as Anand and Shirov. Kasparov explains the sharp lines in this variation comprehensively and in great depth.

How to Play the Queens GambitIn his day, Kasparov had the best teacher for the Queens Gambit whom one could imagine: Anatoly Karpov. In their rst world championship match, the opening was played no less than 19 times. He speaks eloquently about the variations and ideas behind the Classical Queens Gambit and explains the basic concepts. More than three hours of private training of absolutely superlative class!

vLadiMir KraMniKMy Path to the toP

Vladimir KramnikMy Path to the TopOn this DVD, Vladimir Kramnik describes in video format his chess career, starting from his childhood and the rst book which in uenced his style and going all the way to the FIDEWorld Championship match against Topalov in 2006. He recounts how he made it from the provincial town of Tuapse on the shores of the Black Sea to the Botvinnik Kasparov chess school in Moscow and looks back over his rst great successes on the national and the international stage. At the age of 16, he was selected for the Russian Olympiad team at the insistence of Kasparov and in Manila 1992 he scored a sensational 8.5 points out of 9 games, which was the best result achieved in that Olympiad.

And in the same year he had his baptism of re in an elite tournament: Linares 1992. In one of the strongest tournaments in the history of chess (with Kasparov, Karpov and almost all of the top players of the day) 17 year old Kramnik nished on +2, a superb result, and in doing so established himself as one of the real elite. Further outstanding tournament results would follow and in 2000 the legendary World Championship match against Garry Kasparov, into which goes in great detail on the DVD.

The two other highlights of the DVD are his exciting matches against Leko (2004) and against

Topalov (2006), in which Karmnik was on each occasion successful in his defence of his WCh. When one gets down to it, perhaps the duel with Topalov is the more important one for the history of chess. In Elista 2006 the union of the world championship titles was agreed under the aegis of FIDE. If you follow Vladimir Kramnik along the path of his chess career up till now, you will have done more than just see a lot of chess and gain a better understanding of it. The DVD offers at the same time an outstanding opportunity to get to know the world champion as a person. That is the case because Kramnik talks about his successes, his emotions and his work in chess in a quite relaxed, open, humorous and charming manner. The DVD contains more than six hours of video with exciting reports and game analysis.

The congenial dutch player has a unique record in national champi-onships. he gained the title of cham-pion of the netherlands six times in succession from 2000 to 2005.

Loek van WelyThe Sveshnikov Variation of the SicilianThe Sveshnikov Variation of the Sicilian Defence (1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 e5) belongs to the modern classics of opening theory. Originally, it was often scorned as being too positionally compromising, but the Sveshnikov has found its place in the repertoire of superstars such as Kramnik, Topalov, Radjabov, Carlsen, Shirov and Ivanchuk. Six times champion of the Netherlands, Loek van Wely offers on his Sveshnikov DVD more than just the many valuable suggestions and ideas for connoisseurs of this system. His presentation of the games from the worlds top players is also beautifully designed to help those who are starting out with this fascinating opening. In some

Adrian MikhalchishinDecision making in chessThe theory of the critical moment in the chess game was explained once by GM Iosif Dorfman, who suggested that every game has 5 or 6 forks at which the important decisions are made. Accordingly, all major erroneous decisions are made at these moments when there are multiple possible choices. Mikhalchishin describes different critical moments in detail and explains how to react correctly. Understanding the play at such a critical moment is the key to improving ones results and general understanding of chess. Critical moments are characterized by the presence of between 2 and 4 differ

ent possibilities the exchange of pieces, the calculation of a long variation, a positional solution or transposition into an endgame. Mikhalchishin shows how to perform correctly in the above situations.

26,99 ISBN 9783866810440

Adrian MikhalchishinThe secret weapons of the championsModern middlegame theory does not exist in written form. That is why players and trainers have to go back to the old recommendation by Nimzowitsch to study typical positional methods. But which players are better placed to teach us about their own powerful weapons than the great champions of the past? So the key to understanding the middlegame lies in understanding how to execute certain positional manoeuvres. In this DVD Mikhalchishin explains, for example, Botvinniks famous ank against centre strategy, which is one of the cornerstones of positional play. Also Petrosians white square strategy is an extremely important form of the control of squares and space. Tal was a great master of changing the material balance in every position for example, rook and pawn against two pieces. Total playing time: more than 4 hours.

Daniel KingPowerplay 1 Mating patternsThe reason for most mates being missed is that we do not recognise the possibility early enough. And in turn, the reason for that lies in a lack of knowledge of mating patterns. Recognising when danger approaches is a decisive ability, reasons the popular English grandmaster and chess presenter Daniel King at the start of this DVD. That is equally true, of course, no less for the defending side than for the attacking one, because for a defender it is vital to be able to put up as much resistance as possible. So the study of mating motifs is a rewarding one for both sides. If you follow King on this DVD, it will not only be good for your tactical vision, but time and again you will nd enjoyment in the aesthetic charm of the most varied collection of mating themes.

The most effective learning takes place when you learn directly from the grandmasters of chess. so let grandmaster daniel king show you what you have to take into account for a successful attack on the king, how to set about attacking right from the opening or how to improve the coordination of your pieces.

Daniel KingPowerplay 2 Attacking the kingThe most beautiful sight in chess is a vigorously executed attack on the king. But in praxis attacks on the king usually do not run smoothly. That is because setting up such an attack is a demanding business. What are the preconditions which allow us to go straight for the opposing king? Which pieces are important and when? And which pawns should I throw forward against the opposing castled position? All these questions are answered by King by means of selected model games on his second Powerplay DVD.

On his third DVD, Grandmaster Daniel King investigates further diabolical methods of attacking the castled king this time with the help of a pawn storm. But which pawn should one choose? And when is the correct moment to throw a pawn forward towards the opposing king?

At the end of the DVD you can put your attacking and defensive capacities to the test with a series of specially chosen test positions, which are also optimally suited for trainers to use as readymade lessons and exercises.

Daniel King Powerplay 4 Start rightMany players have great problems with the opening.
