Robert RisNació en Amstelveen, Países Bajos, en 1988, y su padre le enseñó las reglas del ajedrez a los siete años.
"Desde entonces me ha cautivado el juego", dice Robert. "Ya entonces me gustaba el elemento competitivo, así como los retos intelectuales que ofrece el ajedrez. Decidí unirme al club local de ajedrez Zukertort Amstelveen. Los primeros éxitos no tardaron en llegar, y en mi primera participación en el Campeonato Juvenil Holandés acabé segundo en la categoría sub-10.
Durante muchos años figuraba entre los mejores jugadores de mi país en mi categoría de edad y conseguí clasificarme para varias competiciones internacionales. A los 18 años obtuve el título de Maestro Internacional (MI). Siempre me ha gustado el aspecto social de jugar en equipo y he jugado en clubes de Holanda, Bélgica, Alemania, Inglaterra, Islandia y Grecia. Actualmente estoy en mi mejor momento con una clasificación FIDE de 2464 (abril de 2020).
Los cursillos incluidos en nuestra oferta de verano de esta semana:
This video course offers you a complete, clear repertoire for Black against 1.d4, based on the Queen’s Gambit Accepted (1.d4 d5 2.c4 dxc4). By trading off the d-pawn, Black is aiming for an open game with free development for their pieces. Black doesn’t mind trading-off the central pawn, but rather is motivated to challenge White’s centre and grab their opponent by the throat! Besides covering all the critical lines after 1.d4 & 2.c4, popular systems such as the Trompovsky, London/Jobava System, Torre Attack, Colle System and Veresov are dealt with as well.
As against the main lines of the QGA, we are also treating these systems as actively as possible, looking for opportunities to seize the initiative. The video course is complemented by 20 exercises to test your knowledge, 10 positions to play-out to develop a better feeling for the type of positions, as well as a database with over 150 model games.
• Video running time: 7 hours (English)
• With interactive training including video feedback
• Extra: Model games database & Training with ChessBase apps - Memorize the opening repertoire and play key positions against Fritz on various levels
This video course offers you a complete, clear repertoire for Black against the moves 1.Nf3 and 1.c4. The recommended variations are easy to learn and not difficult to remember, but also pose White serious challenges. Against 1.Nf3 the plan is to respond with 1…d5 as Black is ready to return to the Queen’s Gambit Accepted in case White plays 2.d4 (see the other video course). In this part, all White's relevant alternatives (2.c4, 2.e3, 2.b3, 2.g3) are covered in depth.
