Double Fianchetto – The Modern Chess Lifestyle

Descripción

Double Fianchetto – The Modern Chess Lifestyle i became an IM in 1997 and a GM in 2013. Many of my students

have asked me when I will start writing a book, because they know that I like writing and explaining things.  I

come from a teaching family; my father was  a teacher at a German academic high school and I always loved and

still love reading and writing. Nowadays it is  no longer easy to find enough silence for reading, because I have

three small children between the ages of 3 and 6.

Double Fianchetto

This book is definitely not a book full of theoretical lines. Of course, I will give some advice if possible

and necessary. But the main purpose is to explain the structures that can result from double fianchettoed

positions. The reader will find five chapters with structures from the white side and six chapters with structures

from the black side.

The last chapter is a mixed one, with games from both sides. The main — and longest — part will be the first

chapter, with games and analyses of my own main weapon starting with Nf3, g3 and b3 against the King’s Indian

and Grünfeld. I will show the reader a few games of my own and also games from Kramnik and Andersson, two of

my favourite players.

Double Fianchetto

I have learned a lot from their games myself. I have played those structures for nearly 25 years and one

of my sons also now starts with 1.Nf3. During my years of playing chess I tried many possible openings with

White and Black, but I was only successful with fianchettoing one, or even better both, bishops. Maybe this was a

sign and those structures are really a lifestyle for me? I hope you will enjoy reading this book and maybe these

structures will also become part of your lifestyle.
