          <title>A busy person’s opening system</title>
      <description><![CDATA[
Players with interests and commitments away from the chess board often find it difficult to compete against those with more study time. Their opponents come to the board armed with the latest theory and can bash out moves well into the middle game. On this DVD Nigel Davies addresses this issue by demonstrating a simple and easy to learn opening system designed for the busy person.<a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=471"> More information...</a>]]>

          <title>Power of Exchange</title>
      <description><![CDATA[
The correct technique of exchanging is the most important ability of Grandmasters! Which pieces to swap and which pieces to keep, whether to recapture with a piece or with a pawn, these are questions which every player of every level has to answer many times during a single game. And the greatest difference between GMs and amateurs is not in opening knowledge or in calculation power, but in this simple technique. The great Botvinnik even said that chess is just multiple exchanges. He explained Fischer’s technique of play: He had never bad pieces - he always exchanged them for his opponent’s strong pieces. Video running time: 3 hrs.<a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=470"> More information...</a>]]>

          <title>The Gruenfeld Defence</title>
      <description><![CDATA[
The Gruenfeld Defence (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6  3.Nc3 d5) enjoys a special star status in the family
  of Indian openings. It involves a daring,  active concept: fighting for control of the centre with
  an early d7-d5 thrust supported only by  pieces. The ensuing lines and positions promise more
  active play than most openings. Black has  to know the critical ideas and most promising
  plans as most lines are pretty sharp and  concrete. <a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=461"> More information...</a>]]>

          <title>Power of planning</title>
      <description><![CDATA[
Planning is the most difficult part of the game of chess. It is everywhere - we use it from the opening to the ending. A plan is based on evaluation and that evaluation is based on the different static and dynamic elements of the position. But what the chess books don’t describe is the direction of the plan. The aim of every plan is the exploitation of weakness! So, spot the weakness, fix it and then just attack it. There are different kinds of plans - typical plans, based on the structures and analogical plans, based on similar constellations of the pieces on the board. The subject is really big, but the author wanted to show examples of how to construct plans in positions with pawn majorities on the flanks and to teach you how to exploit this element properly. Video running time: 3 hrs 19 min.<a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=463"> More information...</a>]]>

          <title>The King’s Indian</title>
      <description><![CDATA[
The King’s Indian is one of the most interesting and aggressive defences Black can choose. The World Champions Robert James Fischer and Garry Kasparov used to play this opening often and with great success, and also today’s word-class players are employing it frequently, like for instance Boris Gelfand, Alexei Shirov and Teimour Radjabov. On this DVD, Viktor Bologan (Elo 2690) presents a complete King’s Indian repertoire for Black. In 21 chapters the Grandmaster deals with all possible white reactions, showing the subtleties in main and side variations.<a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=469"> More information...</a>]]>

          <title>1...e6: A Solid Repertoire against 1.d4 and 1.e4</title>
      <description><![CDATA[
Many players struggle to find solid openings to play as Black, especially if they have relatively little time to study theory. This DVD addresses this problem, presenting a solid and easy to learn Black repertoire against White’s two main opening moves, 1.e4 and 1.d4. Against both of these moves Nigel Davies advocates 1...e6, which leads to a French Defence after 1.e4 e6 2.d4 or 1.d4 e6 2.e4. This can get quite sharp and theoretical if Black follows the main lines but Davies shows how he can avoid the theory of both 3.Nc3 and 3.Nd2 with GM Oleg Romanishin’s patented line, 3...Be7.   <a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=468"> More information...</a>]]>

          <title>Power Play 11 - Defence</title>
      <description><![CDATA[
There is a seeming inevitability to many defeats – one side has the initiative, goes on the attack and from that moment it is very difficult to turn back the tide. In this 11th Power Play DVD Grandmaster Daniel King will help you to identify those key moments where there is potential danger. The secret to good defensive play is to avoid falling into a passive defensive position! Throughout the DVD, specially selected positions will enable you to test your understanding of the subject. The Power Play series is suitable for anyone looking to improve their chess, but also provides ready-made lessons and exercises for a trainer. Video running time: 5 h 25 min.<a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=465"> More information...</a>]]>

          <title>ChessBase Magazine 132</title>
      <description><![CDATA[
He is not only the man of the hour: Levon Aronian has been hurrying from one success to the next for months now. At the FIDE Grand Prix in Jermuk he only attained the second place, but for the Armenian this was tantamount to the overall victory in the Grand Prix series. And at the recently finished Grand Slam Final in Bilbao, Aronian demonstrated impressive dominance, deciding the tournament in his favour with a round to spare. In the meantime, Aronian has advanced to number three of the world ranking list. By contrast, the third top event of this issue was open to the very end: at the Chess Festival in Biel, the young French player Maxime Vachier-Lagrave achieved his first very great tournament success.<a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=466"> More information...</a>]]>

          <title>The Scandinavian - The easy way 2nd edition</title>
      <description><![CDATA[
It’s easy-to-learn and easy-to-play. Here is an opening for Black which will furnish good results in the shortest possible time. Which other opening could we be referring to apart from the Scandinavian or Centre-Counter Defence; 1 e4 d5 ! International Master Andrew Martin has written extensively on the Centre-Counter and here he turns his attention to 1 e4 d5 2 exd5 Qxd5 3 Nc3 Qd6!? Playing flat out for the win against 1 e4 is never easy, but here we encounter a variation where Black can do just that! All relevant second and third move alternatives for White are covered too! <a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=459"> More information...</a>]]>

          <title>The Budapest Gambit</title>
      <description><![CDATA[
Most chess players are naturally talented, but do not have the time to devote to chess theory, such is the pace of modern life. Yet it is human nature to want to do things well and to achieve good results. To make the right choice of opening system is therefore of crucial importance for these players if they want to make the most of what they have. Below master level and especially with Black, the most crucial thing is to strive for the initiative. It is absolutely no good trying to gradually equalize. Leave that to Karpov, Kramnik and the world championship matches, where we can admire the defensive technique from afar. <a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=457"> More information...</a>]]>

          <title>Arkhangelsk </title>
      <description><![CDATA[
The Ruy Lopez represents one of the oldest and best openings for the first player, and everyone going for the Spanish game with Black faces the question of how he wants to tackle the white ideas. One of the more aggressive fighting methods is the move order 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6 5.0–0 b5 6.Bb3 Bb7, which was developed in the early sixties by players from the north Russian town of Archangelsk and has carried this name ever since. <a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=460"> More information...</a>]]>

          <title>The Queen’s Gambit Declined Exchange Variation</title>
      <description><![CDATA[
The Queen’s Gambit Declined Exchange Variation is one of the most important opening systems, having been played by most of the great players in history and from both sides of the board. The most outstanding specialists in this method of play include Garry Kasparov, Mikhail Botvinnik and Samuel Reshevsky whilst the Black side has been championed by such notables as Anatoly Karpov, Boris Spassky and Paul Keres. It is truly an opening of champions.<a href="http://www.chessbase.com/shop/product.asp?pid=456"> More information...</a>]]>
