f you have ever sat down to play a game of chess, opened with your favorite move and been completely thrown by your opponent’s reply then you’ll know how frustrating it can be.
These unusual openings, whilst nearly always unsound, often have a hidden trap and your logical moves might walk right into it. Of course, the players who play them know about these traps and are hoping you’ll make the crucial mistake.
However, with unusual openings, a little knowledge goes a long way. Navigate your way past the early traps and deny your opponent the opportunity he is looking for and you will have a vastly superior position.
In his course, “Unsound Openings and How to Exploit Them“, GM Roman Dzindzichashvili gives the exact continuations that lead to the biggest advantage against some of the lines most popular in tournament play.
In this preview, Roman shows how to tackle the Fred Defense (that’s really it’s name!) 1.e4 f5?! 2.exf5 Nf6, the early d5 in the Sicilian, 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d5?! 3.exd5 Qxd5 and 2…Ng8?! in the Alekhine’s Defense.
Roman explains what ideas Black is pinning his hopes on in each variation and how to come out on top.
Enjoy the preview and check out the full course if you want to be able to tackle more unusual openings.
