{"product_id":"beat-the-anti-sicilians","title":"Beat the Anti-Sicilians","description":"\u003cp\u003eI have aimed to find a good balance of verbal\nexplanations without ignoring the hardcore variations you have to know. In case\nyou find some of the analyses a bit too long, don’t be discouraged! They have\nbeen included mainly to illustrate the thematic ideas and show in which\ndirection the game develops once the theoretical paths have been left. That’s\nwhy I have actually decided to cover 37 games in their entirety, rather than\ncutting off my analysis with an evaluation. I believe that model games help you\nto better understand an opening, but certainly also the ensuing middle- and\nendgames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eJust as in the \u003ci\u003eThe Modernized Sveshnikov\u003c\/i\u003e,\nalso in this book I have made frequently use of correspondence and engine\ngames. With a lack of over the board (elite) tournaments, most elite players\nmade their switch to the world of online chess as well. These games with a\nshorter time control are often full of mistakes, but the opening stage is still\nrelevant. Hence, I have decided to include these online games whenever I\nthought them to be a useful addition to our repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith the completion of this work and \u003ci\u003eThe\nModernized Sveshnikov\u003c\/i\u003e, I think I have succeeded in offering the reader a\ncomplete, ambitious, and sound Black repertoire against 1.e4. I am incredibly\nsatisfied with the result of this work, as I think the mix of new ideas, beautiful\nvariations, model games, extensive analyses and explanation of key concepts will\ninspire many chess fans. I would like to wish you all an enjoyable read and\nhope that you will be able to apply some of my recommendations in your own\ngames. You no longer have to fear any Anti-Sicilian! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRobert Ris\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAmstelveen, The Netherlands\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSeptember 2021\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thinkers Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49756863955288,"sku":"9789464201369","price":32.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9789464201369_dfc4f7c4-c37b-4426-b618-4a843e4bc853.jpg?v=1765902637","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/beat-the-anti-sicilians","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
