Selected attacking games
25.11.2009
– Games full of tactical ups and downs and mating motifs rightly charm every
chess fan, and so it will come as no surprise that a successful attack
on the king always represents a dainty morsel for all chess lovers. We have
selected and annotated two attractive attacking games from the Russia Cup
in Saint Petersburg. In the first of them (diagram) we see how Ian
Nepomniachtchi sets about an uncastled Sicilian king. In the second game, a
Ruy Lopez, Alexei Fedorov managed to reduce to rubble the castled position
of the black monarch. IM Michael Kopylov for ChessBaseMagazine Online.

Nigel Davies:
Build a 1.d4 Repertoire
Creating a Repertoire can be a difficult and demanding job, especially for
those with limited study time. Attempts to implement a lot of new openings at the
same time can set a player adrift in a sea of unknown chess patterns. This in turn can
have a catastrophic impact on their game.
On this DVD Nigel Davies explains how to go about this process of building a repertoire
the right way, with a minimal amount of stress or sweeping wholesale changes.
