In this book, Swedish grandmaster Tiger Hillarp Persson presents his own favourite defence against 1.e4, the Modern Defence with a6. With his trademark laid-back approach, he explains the different White replies to his system. His repertoire is based on deep understanding, common themes, and interesting games, rather than simply theory to be memorised. Pieces are sacrificed in a great number of games and famous grandmasters meet their doom on the pages of this refreshingly lively opening book. In today's chess teaching, opening theory often reaches deep into the middlegame, and players struggle to create something new and inspiring at the chessboard. Here, Tiger Hillarp Persson shows that it is possible to be original at an early stage. 0000 _00000.bmp 1 001.bmp 2 003.bmp 3 005.bmp 4 006.bmp 5 007.bmp 6 008.bmp 7 009.bmp 8 010.bmp 9 011.bmp 10 012.bmp 11 013.bmp 12 015.bmp 13 016.bmp 14 017.bmp 15 018.bmp 16 019.bmp 17 020.bmp 18 021.bmp 19 022.bmp 20 023.bmp 21 024.bmp 22 025.bmp 23 026.bmp 24 027.bmp 25 028.bmp 26 029.bmp 27 030.bmp 28 031.bmp 29 032.bmp 30 033.bmp 31 034.bmp 32 035.bmp 33 036.bmp 34 037.bmp 35 038.bmp 36 039.bmp 37 040.bmp 38 041.bmp 39 042.bmp 40 043.bmp 41 044.bmp 42 045.bmp 43 046.bmp 44 047.bmp 45 048.bmp 46 049.bmp 47 050.bmp 48 051.bmp 49 052.bmp 50 053.bmp 51 054.bmp 52 055.bmp 53 056.bmp 54 057.bmp 55 058.bmp 56 059.bmp 57 060.bmp 58 061.bmp 59 062.bmp 60 063.bmp 61 064.bmp 62 065.bmp 63 066.bmp 64 067.bmp 65 068.bmp 66 069.bmp 67 070.bmp 68 071.bmp 69 072.bmp 70 073.bmp 71 074.bmp 72 075.bmp 73 076.bmp 74 077.bmp 75 078.bmp 76 079.bmp 77 080.bmp 78 081.bmp 79 082.bmp 80 083.bmp 81 084.bmp 82 085.bmp 83 086.bmp 84 087.bmp 85 088.bmp 86 089.bmp 87 090.bmp 88 091.bmp 89 093.bmp 90 094.bmp 91 095.bmp 92 096.bmp 93 097.bmp 94 098.bmp 95 099.bmp 96 100.bmp 97 101.bmp 98 102.bmp 99 103.bmp 100 104.bmp 101 105.bmp 102 106.bmp 103 107.bmp 104 108.bmp 105 109.bmp 106 110.bmp 107 111.bmp 108 112.bmp 109 113.bmp 110 114.bmp 111 115.bmp 112 116.bmp 113 117.bmp 114 118.bmp 115 119.bmp 116 120.bmp 117 121.bmp 118 122.bmp 119 123.bmp 120 124.bmp 121 125.bmp 122 126.bmp 123 127.bmp 124 128.bmp 125 129.bmp 126 130.bmp 127 131.bmp 128 132.bmp 129 133.bmp 130 134.bmp 131 135.bmp 132 136.bmp 133 137.bmp 134 138.bmp 135 139.bmp 136 141.bmp 137 142.bmp 138 143.bmp 139 144.bmp 140 145.bmp 141 146.bmp 142 147.bmp 143 148.bmp 144 149.bmp 145 150.bmp 146 151.bmp 147 152.bmp 148 153.bmp 149 154.bmp 150 155.bmp 151 156.bmp 152 157.bmp 153 158.bmp 154 159.bmp 155 160.bmp 156 161.bmp 157 162.bmp 158 163.bmp 159 164.bmp 160 165.bmp 161 166.bmp 162 167.bmp 163 168.bmp 164 169.bmp 165 170.bmp 166 171.bmp 167 173.bmp 168 174.bmp 169 175.bmp 170 176.bmp 171 177.bmp 172 178.bmp 173 179.bmp 174 180.bmp 175 181.bmp 176 182.bmp 177 183.bmp 178 184.bmp 179 185.bmp 180 186.bmp 181 187.bmp 182 188.bmp 183 189.bmp 184 190.bmp 185 191.bmp 186 192.bmp 187 193.bmp 188 194.bmp 189 195.bmp 190 196.bmp 191 197.bmp 192 198.bmp 193 199.bmp 194 200.bmp 195 201.bmp 196 202.bmp 197 203.bmp 198 204.bmp 199 205.bmp 200 206.bmp 201 207.bmp 202 208.bmp 203 209.bmp 204 210.bmp 205 211.bmp 206 212.bmp 207 213.bmp 208 214.bmp 209 215.bmp 210 216.bmp 211
In modern chess it is often difficult to be creative in the opening, but in this book Tiger Hillarp Persson shows it can be done. Tiger presents his own favorite line against 1.e4: the Modern Defense with ...a6. With the original approach he brings both to the game of chess and life in general, he covers White’s various replies to his system, with a repertoire based on understanding, typical reactions, and interesting games, rather than theory to be memorized. Pieces are sacrificed in a great number of games and famous grandmasters will meet their doom on the pages of this refreshingly lively opening book.
