In this Fritztrainer: Attack like a Super GM, with Gukesh we touch upon all aspects of his play, with special emphasis on how you can become a better attacking player.
You will learn how Black's dynamic piece activity and structural counterplay more than compensate for White's extra tempo in the colour-reversed setups. The Benoni family of openings has toppled world champions, decided match games under the highest pressure, and rewarded those brave enough to play them with some of the most electrifying chess imaginable. In this Fritztrainer, Grandmaster Ivan Sokolov - continuing his successful series "Understanding Middlegame Structures" - takes you deep inside the complexities of the Colour-Reversed Benoni, the Colour-Reversed Benko Gambit, and the Colour-Reversed Blumenfeld Gambit.

29/04/2026 – La lista de participantes del Grand Chess Tour 2026 se ha modificado poco antes del inicio de la serie de torneos en mayo. Gukesh Dommaraju se ha retirado como «jugador regular» y Javokhir Sindarov ha sido nombrado como su reemplazo. De cualquier manera, los próximos contendientes al Campeonato Mundial se enfrentarán en la primera etapa a jugarse en Polonia. Levon Aronian se perderá el evento de Bucarest debido a una enfermedad y Jorden van Foreest (en la imagen) lo reemplazará como «jugador regular» del tour. | Foto: ChessBase / Nils Rohde
20/01/2026 – Este ensayo propone una mirada filosófica y simbólica del ajedrez como algo más que un juego de estrategia. A través del tablero y sus piezas, el texto explora el ajedrez como metáfora del cosmos, del conflicto humano y de la búsqueda de sentido. Desde las civilizaciones antiguas hasta la ciencia contemporánea, el artículo invita a contemplar el tablero como un espacio donde se entrelazan pensamiento, ética, arte y autoconocimiento, ofreciendo una reflexión serena sobre el orden, el caos y la armonía en la vida. | Imagen (IA): Uvencio Blanco Hernández
This entry into the 60 minutes series concentrates on the Modern variation of the Italian game where White opens the centre early : 1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Bc4 Nf6 4 d4 exd4 5 e5!. This line can be reached by various move orders, most frequently from the Scotch 3 d4 exd4 4 Bc4. It's a sharp variation and Grandmasters such as Evgeny Sveshnikov have used it frequently,with very good results. It's a perfect line for club players to adopt which is relatively easy to learn and which contains many traps. All the main responses are covered here, including 5...d5, 5...Ng4 and 5...Ne4 and the conclusion is that is is difficult for Black to equalize in a straightforward way. Problems are being posed, which over the board might prove tough to solve.
You will learn how Black's dynamic piece activity and structural counterplay more than compensate for White's extra tempo in the colour-reversed setups.
In this course, you’ll learn how to take the initiative against the London and prevent White from comfortably playing their usual system by playing 1.d4 Nf6 2.Bf4 Nh5.
London System Powerbase 2026 is a database and contains in all 11 285 games from Mega 2026 and the Correspondence Database 2026, of which 282 are annotated.
The London System Powerbook 2026 is based on more than 410 000 games or game fragments from different opening moves and ECO codes; what they all have in common is that White plays d4 and Bf4 but does not play c4.
In this course, Grandmaster Elisabeth Pähtz presents the London System, a structured and ambitious approach based on the immediate Bf4, leading to rich and dynamic positions.
Opening videos: Open Spanish (Sipke Ernst) and Classical Sicilian (Nico Zwirs). Endgame Special by Igor Stohl: ‘Short or long side’ – where should the defending king be placed in rook endgames? ‘Lucky bag’ with 35 master analyses.
