Descripción
The Modernized Nimzo –Queen’s Gambit Declined Systems If you want to play like the best players in
the world then playing the Queen’s Gambit Declined is the right choice. Learning it, though, is a difficult
process, as it involves a certain amount of knowledge that you won’t find easy. It is not regarded as a
particularly sharp opening, but missing one small detail can easily land you in a passive position.

The Modernized Nimzo –Queen’s Gambit Declined Systems Although books on the subject are rare, when we
look at all the matches for the World Championship we see that the Queen’s Gambit Declined has always
been one of the most popular openings, thus knowledge of the positions arising is the knowledge of the
best players. A combination of the Queen’s Gambit Declined and Nimzo-Indian is considered one of best
ways to play against 1.d4, 1.c4 or 1.Nf3.
Queen’s Gambit Declined Systems
Endgames and simplified positions are largely underestimated in today’s chess, where engines and forced lines
have taken over, but in my opinion simplicity is the best way. Simplicity doesn’t mean a lack of ideas; on the
contrary it means fine ideas carried out in a simple, harmonious way. To achieve this is true mastery of chess.

Capablanca, Lasker, Alekhine, Spassky, Karpov, Kramnik and Anand are just a few of the former World
Champions who used the Queen’s Gambit Declined on a regular basis and introduced many completely new
ideas. Others have also analysed it extensively, e.g. the Tartakower line (not the subject of this book) was
enriched by the Russian Makagonov, whom Bronstein once described to me as a remarkable theoretician.
The Modernized Nimzo
In this book I present the Nimzo-Indian and Catalan in order to cover all aspects of …Nf6/…e6 play. I often
searched for more dynamic solutions when the positions permitted to make the book more comprehensive and to
try to cover aspects specific to those openings.
Queen’s Gambit Declined Systems
Also, I deliberately connected the Capablanca line in the Nimzo with the Bf4 system in the Queen’s Gambit
Declined, an interesting combination that I noticed a long time ago, but didn’t see many players use. The reason
for that is also logical; not everyone who plays the Nimzo plays the Queen’s Gambit Declined, so players who do
play the Queen’s Gambit Declined might find this an interesting idea.
