CLEARANCE - London System for White - IM Marcin Sieciechowicz
The London System is a very sound and rock-solid setupā¦ you donāt even have to learn a lot of theory. The same move order against almost any defense conjured up by Black, the same ideas and plansā¦ This is a dream come true for every club-level player. One question often stops advanced-level players from trying it out. Is it deadly and harmful enough? Or does Black usually end up equalizing with Whiteā¦ and even gaining the upper hand if he knows what he is doing? Or is this opening just not critical enough and could bore the tactician inside you to death? To put these questions to rest, IM Marcin Sieciechowicz is here with his London System for White.
9 hoursĀ andĀ 50 minutesĀ of intensive video lessons, covering the complicated Grunfeld to the tricky Benoni to the dubious Dutch.
Hereās what you will learn:
- Color complex fights. In the Queenās Indian setup, White controls the dark squares, whereas Black controls the light squares. Learn how to lock certain areas of the board, gain a knight outpost in the center of the board, and much more.
- Checks, no castling. The Slav setup is crazy! Put a check on your opponentās king, and he loses the right to castle. Itās not drawish though. Learn how to activate your King faster than Black and create killer passed pawns for promotion.
- Benoni traps. If you are playing the London and your opponent whips out the Benoni, be careful! The Benoni hold tactical potential along with posing positional threats. Let Marcin show you a game where the London crumbled against the Benoni.
- Lots of bite power. Check out the game between Ponomariov and Eljanov played in the 2010 Blitz Championship. Ponomariov went for an early d5ā¦ see how Eljanov punished him for long castling and harassed his king over the board.
- Early attack on bishop. The knight in the Kingās Indian setup can quickly threaten the capture of Whiteās dark-squared bishop. You cannot avoid the capture but you must know the tactical consequences of the same
Learn to play the London as Whiteā¦ not for the half point but for the full point!
