Tactic Toolbox Merano Variation

The Merano Variation in the Semi-Slav (1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.Nc3 e6 5.e3 Nbd7 6.Bd3 dxc4 7.Bxc4 b5) is a strategically and dynamically complex opening full of tactical possibilities. This DVD gives you a comprehensive overview of the typical tactical motifs of both sides and at the same time explains positional concepts. White often tries to exploit his development advantage and launches a quick attack against the black king, no matter where it is! Black hopes to survive White's aggressive approach and launch a counterattack in the center. This leads to double-edged and tactical positions. In an interactive format, IM Robert Ris presents you with numerous tasks and gives tips and advice so that you can learn the most important tactical patterns of this variation and play it successfully. The DVD is a must for anyone who wants to know more about this opening and a pleasure for anyone who enjoys razor-sharp games from the best players in the world!
