Odessky Ilia

This book is devoted to the paradoxical opening 1.d4 e6 2.c4 b6.
By playing 3.e4 White immediately wants to punish the ‘disturber of the peace’ for his neglect of opening principles, but in this case Black sets his opponent such a variety of mines and traps, that he can gain an advantage, even omitting the equalising stage! At the present day the statistics after 3.e4 is appalling for White: in 7 out of 10 games he suffers defeat!
Descrizione

The author, not relying on his own store of words, constantly hides behind the ckassics, citing them right and left. Characters form world literature and even departed personalities strive to take an active part in the analysis of variations.
