Dear Reader, I have returned to my book from a few years ago, to an opening that at the time was a rare guest among books as a topic - and not only among books, but also in tournament practice. In the intervening years it has become very popular to use this old and somewhat forgotten method of playing and I have found lots of interesting new games. This time though I have focused mainly on Colle-Zukertort type positions, plus some transpositions to Queen's Indian-type play, so this is not a repertoire book like the previous one, but rather you can look at it as an opening book. Of course, Slav reactions with â¦c6 are covered as well, and also early and quick â¦c5 and â¦g6 reactions. Due to increased popularity, I have dived into specifics which we can consider now as a renaissance of this old line. There are positions in this book that have stood the test of time, but I have also focused on the most recent ideas as I didn't want to simply repeat the same ideas as before - I wanted to include as much as possible new plans. I also tested these ideas numerous times in my own practice. So, what you have here is a completely redesigned and modernized system compared to only a few years ago, when this system was virtually forgotten.
