Practical 1.d4 Repertoire for White - Part 2

GM-Ioannis-Papaioannou-33b9a5b0fb

The camp of GM Papaioannou Practical 1.d4 Repertoire for White - Part 2 is already a digital product. 

This product includes all the videos from the workshop as well as the PGN file related to the training sessions. Overall, the material consists of 10.5 hours of video and a PGN database, which includes 184 files! 

You will find the following lectures:

✅ Practical Repertoire against Queen's Gambit Declined

✅ Practical Repertoire against Queen's Gambit Accepted

✅ Fight the Rare Lines after 1.d4 d5 2.c4

✅ Practical Repertoire against Dutch Defence and Rare Openings

✅ Easy to Learn Repertoire against the Slav - Part 1

✅ Easy to Learn Repertoire against the Slav - Part 2

Now, we shall take a look at the different lectures.

Practical Repertoire against Queen's Gambit Declined

The first lecture is dedicated to the Queen's Gambit Declined. Our repertoire will be based on the Exchange Variation that after 1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.cxd5 exd5 5.Bg5

1-13bf3dcd8e

This is the main starting tabiya of the Exchange Variation of Queen's Gambit Declined. Recently, White is mainly going for plans based on ...Nge2. In this lecture, you will see that the setup with Nf3 is not only easy to learn, but can also be quite dangerous. In the arising positions, understanding is much more important than knowledge of concrete theory.

Note that after 3...Be7 we go for another version of the Exchange variation - 4.cxd5 exd5 5.Bf4. In the analysis, you will see that White can rely on a small edge in this line.

Practical Repertoire against Queen's Gambit Accepted

The second lecture is dedicated to the Queen's Gambit Accepted. Let's take a look at the main tabiya arising after 1.d4 d5 2.c4 dxc4 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.e3 e6 5.Bxc4 c5 6.0-0 a6

2-06b0f811de

In this position, the recommendation of Papaioannou is 7.b3!?

This is the main tabiya of our repertoire against the Queen's Gambit Accepted. The 7.b3!? is an excellent choice for a slight but stable and risk-free advantage, and a significant part of White's concept of play is based on transposing to an endgame that is not fully equal for Black. Importantly, a lot of White's play can and should be based on a general understanding that one can acquire after studying the lines and games shown in the lecture. The approach is not at all based on heavy memorization.

Fight the Rare Lines after 1.d4 d5 2.c4

This lecture covers rare lines for Black after 1.d4 d5. Most of these lines are of dubious value, but still, a concrete idea of what position to strive for is required from White to achieve good practical results. Such a clear idea is exactly what this lecture attempts to provide.

Practical Repertoire against Dutch Defence and Rare Openings

In this lecture a practical repertoire against the Dutch Defence is presented. It is based on one of the so-called "Anti-Dutch" lines. The suggestion of Papaioannou is 1.d4 f5 2.Bg5

3-f465afefb0

Here is how GM Ioannis Papaioannou comments on his opening choice, "My preferred anti-Dutch system. Black's position is very risky strategically and condemned by the engines. The main idea of the lecture is to play a universal setup with e3, Nc3, Qd2, f3, 0-0-0, with great positions and not much memorization required.".

SAMPLE EXAMPLE

Chess Viewer YCGMVXRI1M5Y8C1CHE39SAOJBI2RK4VS

Easy to Learn Repertoire against the Slav - Part 1

Our choice against the Slav Defence is based on 1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.e3

4-4334644c8c

Even though this popular variation is quite rich in theoretical lines, we can play it mainly by relying on understanding. Black's main moves in this position are 4...Bf5 4...Bg4, and 4...a6. These continuations are covered in the last lecture. The current lecture features all the alternatives - 4...e6, 4...g6, and 4...dxc4. Against all these moves, you will learn easy-to-follow plans that will allow you to fight for a slight advantage.

Easy to Learn Repertoire against the Slav - Part 2

Let's get back the the main starting position of our repertoire against the Slav Defence.

4-4334644c8c

This lecture provides you with full and easy-to-learn repertoire against 3...Bf5, 3...Bg4, and 3...a6. As promised, you don't need theory to play this line with White. For instance, our suggestions against 4...Bf5 is 5.Bd3 when the main tabiya is reached after 5...Bxd3 6.Qxd3 e6 7.0-0 Nbd7 8.Nbd2

5-218be1ac81

Now there are two different plans for Black: playing ....Be7 or playing ...Bd6.
After ...Bd6 we will go for e3-e4! After...Be7, we will go for slow play with b3-Bb2. In both cases, we have good chances for some advantage!
