My Dutch (1h and 40min Video Running Time)  Discounted 

We are happy to inform you that GM Alvar Alonso has published his first course for Modern Chess - My Dutch. Having tremendous experience with this opening, GM Alonso provides you extremely practical and easy-to-learn repertoire. According to him, Dutch Defence has huge practical value since most of the players (even strong GMs) do not dedicate enough time to this tricky opening. Additionally, when you opponent sees the move 1...f5, he wants to punish you. All these considerations make the Dutch Defence a perfect choice in terms of playing for a win. The database consists of 11 theoretical chapters (the last one is a bonus), 15 interactive test positions, a Memory Booster, and a Video Version (1h and 40min Running Time).
