Handbook of Tricky Opening Strategies in Chess

First published in 1995, with the title 'The Big Book of Busts'. There are a large number of chess openings which, while not entirely sound or objectively dangerous, nevertheless strike fear into the hearts of some players. The Smith-Morra Gambit ( 1.e4 c5 2,d4), Budapest Defence (1.d4 Nf6 2,c4 e5), Torre Attack ( 1.d4 Nf6 2.Nf3 with 3.Bg5), Grob (1.g4), and other aggressive lines are not easy to meet, especially since much of the literature on these openings is written from the point of view of the aggressor. 
In this book, noted theoreticians John Watson and Eric Schiller have combined forces to provide a thorough examination of over 70 of these annoying openings, presenting refutations, clever lines which are outside the normal paths, and methods of avoiding the opponent's preferred positions. After studying this book, you can greet these openings with confidence and emerge from the opening with a fully satisfactory position. In fact, the authors present so many novel solutions that is your opponent who gets caught by surprise.  (Hugh Davies)

How to Win with
Hypermodern Chess Strategy

In the 1920's the hypermodern school (primarily Nimzowitsch, Reti, Tartakower, Breyer and Grünfeld) introduced strategies which relied for their impact on fianchettoed bishops and a delayed assault on the centre. Perhaps the most provocative of the new openings was Alekhine's defence 1e4 Nf6 which positively encouraged a huge white pawn centre to lumber forwards and then self destruct. In their treatise the authors - between them responsible for 200 books on chess - outline and explain these theories and show how they remain valid as point scorers to the present day. Originally published as Winning with the Hypermodern. 
Eric Schiller has a long involvement in world chess championships, having been a championship arbiter and head of the press room . He is one of the most prolific authors on chess and has written extensively on all aspects of the game.

Chess players who enjoy attacking from the very first move are rewarded here with a powerful repertoire of brilliant gambits.

Learn the Scandinavian gambit against 1.e4, the Schara gambit and Queen’s gambit declined variations against 1.d4, and some flank and unorthodox gambits also. Black learns the secrets of seizing the initiative from White’s hands, usually by investing a pawn or two, to begin powerful attacks that can send White to early defeat. Illustrations. 176 pages

 Secrets of the King's Indian
Secrets of the King's Indian

The King's Indian is the most popular chess opening and offers great opportunities for spectacular attacks and clever defenses. You'll learn the fundamental concepts, critical ideas, hidden resources, opening traps, and typical tactical and strategic mistakes. All major variations are covered, including Classical, Petrosian, Saemisch, Averbakh, Four Pawns, Fianchetto, and unconventional lines.

The Rubinstein Attack

The Rubinstein Attack is a basic formation for White, with kingside castling, a bishop at d3, queenside fianchetto and usually knights at f3 and d2. It is known by many names, including: Colle with b3, Modern Colle, Yusupov-Rubinstein Variation, Rubinstein Opening, Zukertort-Yusupov Opening, Zukertort-Rubinstein Opening, etc. Rubinstein was clearly the most significant proponent of the opening, and we honor his contributions by adopting the names Rubinstein Opening and Rubinstein Attack.
White has several strategies from the basic formation. A stonewall attack with Ne5 and f4 is the most common, but there are alternative strategies involving c2-c4 or e3-e4, which can also be quite useful.
Black, on the other hand, has a big menu of defenses to choose from.
Black will, in almost all cases, place a knight at f6, a pawn at e6, and castle on the kingside. It is the position of the other knight, the bishops, and the c-pawn that define Black’s formation. A “Classical” position has the bishop at e7, while a “Bogoljubow” position has the bishop at d6. A queenside fianchetto by Black is a “Tartakower” line. When the knight goes to d7, instead of c6 after the advance of the pawn to c5, then we have a “Modern” line, if Black fianchettoes at b7, or a “QGD” (Queen’s Gambit Declined) line otherwise. Black can mix and match these ideas.

Weapons of Chess Destruction

So they can be copied and pasted to a chess program for easy viewing. Suitable for players rated between 600 and 1200 on the Elo scale.

 

Of Kings and Pawns

In chess games the result is often determined in the endgame, where most of the armies have been removed from the board. When it comes down to just kings and pawns, absolute precision is necessary, and a minor slip can toss away all the hard-earned advantages built up during the game. Endgames are very complex strategically. It is necessary to have in mind a specific target position so that a pawn can be marched to the far side of the board and be promoted into a queen or other powerful piece. The unique format of this book provides the reader with the desired target at the start of the discussion, so that the main task is to find a path from the initial position to one which is clearly winning (or drawing), as required. The 26 exercises are positions that are not only important for developing endgame technique, but are also of high artistic merit, so that the study of the positions will be entertaining. Chess master Eric Schiller, internationally recognized trainer and author of many books on chess, provides detailed commentary for each position, pointing out important alternative strategies and all of the tactical nuances. After working through the material in this book, the reader will be ready to cope with even the trickiest king and pawn endgames, and as a consequence will have better results in both competitive and casual play.

 

QGA Smyslov Variation

Queen's Gambit Accepted: Smyslov Variation

The Smyslov Variation was developed by World Chess Champion Vasily Smyslov and used in top level competitions by him and by other World Champions. One advantage is that it can be used frequently. If White plays 1. d4 and Black responds with 1. … d5, White will almost always play 2. c4. Then after the natural moves 2. … dxc4 3. Nf3 Nf6 4. e3, Black can play 4. … g6 which is the Smyslov Variation. The Smyslov Variation is a form of the Queen's Gambit Accepted. Smyslov's Variation is inspired by the Gruenfeld Defense but easier to play because there isn't a lot of deep theory to absorb. The basic idea is to establish a safe castled position and aim to undermine White's center with an eventual ...e5 or play on the queenside, using knights to infiltrate the light squares. Smyslov's preferred plan is to bring the Nf6 to the queenside via d7, bring the bishop to g4 to eliminate the Nf3, and then play ...e5.
