It’s easy-to-learn and easy-to-play. Here is an opening for Black which will furnish good results in the shortest possible time. Which other opening could we be referring to apart from the Scandinavian or Centre-Counter Defence; 1 e4 d5! International Master Andrew Martin has written extensively on the Centre-Counter and here he turns his attention to 1 e4 d5 2 exd5 Qxd5 3 Nc3 Qd6!? Playing fl at out for the win against 1 e4 is never easy, but here we encounter a variation where Black can do just that! All relevant second and third move alternatives for White are covered too! This DVD will be a boon to all chessplayers,but particularly to the busy person with limited time for study or those who wish to incorporate a new defence into their Black repertoire with the minimum possible hassle. This really is the Scandinavian – the easy way!
System requirements: Pentium-Processor at 300 Mhz or higher, 64 MB RAM, Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Media Player 9.0, DVD drive. Version 9 of ChessBase Reader is included – no other software required!
IM Andrew Martin has an engaging, easy-going presentation style that makes learning from the DVD format enjoyable. This ChessBase production covers the line 3...Qd6 and presents Black's alternatives to many of White's responses. Martin uses illustrative games to show how Black can handle the various replies s/he is likely to encounter. One can go through each section, review it as needed, and move on when ready. One suggestion I would make to improve the package would be a written summary of lines covered in the DVD for ease of reference.
