Description
The Grasshopper is a novel chess opening that will transform your game. If you are an intermediate or advanced chess player looking to expand your repertoire, this book is for you. The Grasshopper approach to chess is highly positional and focuses on keeping all the pieces on the board for tactical battles. It's similar to yet at the same time notably different from renowned openings such as the Queen's Gambit, Slav Defense, Grünfeld, and London System. The book proves the soundness of the opening by showing well over 300 examples from grandmaster and professional-level games, testing it against computer engines, and demonstrating new ways to gain exciting positions and tactical advantages. In separate sections, the author walks readers through the key strategic ideas from the opening to the middlegame and endgame, while presenting challenging puzzles along the way.
