向補習說再見

Tricks and traps, especially in the opening, are a dangerous reality

of competitive chess. All sorts of surprises await the unwary player,

from devastating sacrifices to cunning move order ploys. A knowledge

of such ideas is essential if a player wants to be the hunter rather

than the victim.



On this DVD Davies presents a variety of tricks and traps that can

arise after 1.e4 by White, breaking them down into a number of

different categories. The examples are designed to appeal to players

of every level and feature all of Black?s main defences. Besides

coverage of some of the classics, Davies reveals some little known

ploys and explains how likely these traps are to succeed. Accordingly

the viewer should gain some psychological insights into the art of

trapping and this should help his game as a whole. Video runnig time:
