4 Ways to Attack the Caro-Kann

Attacking the Caro-Kann is not easy. These are the setups for white I fear the most, and I avoid entering them if I can. I’ve been playing the Caro-Kann since I started playing chess, but there are still some variations I hate playing against and don’t do well against no matter how well prepared I am.

I’ve played all four positions from the video in actual tournament chess otb and had mixed success, so I can say from personal experience, that these four attacking setups will be very hard for any Caro-Kann player to deal with.
