Vol 169
The Albin Counter gambit is a magnificent weapon for club players. This counterattack even works well at master level, although tends to be used as a surprise higher up. Here we explore new winning ideas from the games of GM Alexander Morozevich (2678).
On this modern DVD, FIDE Senior Trainer and IM Andrew Martin develops a repertoire for Black, based mainly around an early …Nge7 in most of the main lines. This is the approach used by super GM Morozevich and an exciting life is guaranteed.
The Modern Albin Counter-Gambit will take the unprepared White player by surprise. After 1.d4 d5 2.c4 e5, if White takes the e-pawn then Black plays 3…d4, and his mighty d-pawn will be an effective wedge, splitting the White position in two.
This DVD covers all other main lines of the Albin Counter-Gambit:
1) 5.Nbd2
2) Other White fifth moves
