Unusual Queen's Gambit Declined
Ward Chris
Tre armi inconsuete contro il Gambetto di Donna: il Controgambetto Albin (1.d4 d5 2.c4 e5), la Difesa Baltica, detta anche Keres (1.d4 d5 2.c4 Af5), la Difesa Chigorin (1.d4 d5 2.c4 Cc6).
Description
In the unusual Queen`s Gambit, grandmaster Chris Ward covers three offbeat but nevertheless important defences to this ancient opening. The Chigorin Defence (1 d4 d5 2 c4 Nc6) creates dynamic imbalance in the position. White often ends up with a big centre but Black`s active pieces can create havoc. The Albin Counter Gambit (1 d4 d5 2 c4 e5) is a tricky tactical line which can be deadly against an unprepared White player. The final variation (1 d4 d5 2 c4 Bf5) is an interesting way to solve immediately the age old problem of how to develop the queen`s bishop in the Queen`s Gambit Declined.
