The Nimzovich Defense
ChessCentral's Data Library

Get focused with our new series of on-target databases ready for immediate download! The ChessCentral Data Library is for the specialist who needs a comprehensive source of games for his chosen opening or variation. Tired of wondering if the "other guy" knows something you don't? Look no further - here you will find the largest collection of relevant games assembled anywhere, along with an Introduction to help orient newcomers to the opening. Most importantly, each database comes with its own specially constructed Opening Key - a powerful tool that lets you pinpoint the critical variations and see at a glance which games require detailed study.

Each entry in the ChessCentral Data Library contains a staggering number of games, usually double that of the typical "Mega" CD. And we're talking squeaky clean: besides the usual "kill doubles" drill, these databases were sorted by move order and visually scanned for those hard-to-get duplicates. The Players Index has been unified, and we even tried to standardize the Tournament Index! So don't worry - you're getting far more than a simple merging of other databases...you're getting the best game collection available. The ChessCentral Data Library offers a sure foundation for anyone wishing to take up the opening in question.

We believe the ChessCentral Data Library is perfect for any tournament player preparing to use these openings. Sure, owning a book or two is good, but nothing can replace actually seeing thousands of complete games played out on the chess board! A few hours spent here will be quickly repaid by points on the crosstable. So enjoy...and happy hunting with the ChessCentral Data Library!

The Nimzovich Defense (B00)
Covers 1.e4 Nc6 with almost 53,000 games. Includes introductory text and special Opening Key - more than 500 classification positions! Complete through 1-1-2018.

The Nimzovich Defense is an opening defined on the first move, in which Black develops a piece, pressures the center, and reserves all options; in which he offers no concession, no target, and no weakness. This flexible and solid opening has the further advantage of being little studied and less understood - fertile grounds for independent research. Never before has it been possible to see "Nimzo's Other" in action, fully digitized and backed by today's computing power. Starting with exhaustive archival material from Hugh Myers, and continuing to the latest tournament game, this download presents a complete and dynamic system for Black (not to mention must-see analysis for the 1.e4 player!). The catch-phrase after 1.e4 Nc6 is "sound and reliable," so that players of any level will find a powerful weapon in the Nimzovich Defense. Finally, a modern 1.e4 Nc6 database is here, making it possible to quickly master the basic ideas of this iconic opening. Play to win from the very first move - get the Nimzovich Defense Data Library today!

Customer Service Beyond Expectation

First of all, the chess set is beautiful. I gave it to my son two Christmases ago and he plays it constantly. He is very proud of it. So...when our dog captured the pawn and chewed it, my son was bummed. I contacted Chess Central and they said that they would work on it. I totally forgot about it and figured I'd never hear back. Today, guess what arrived in the mail? The black pawn! My son actually did a little jig. Thank you, ChessCentral.

This is by far the most impressive chess set I've ever seen!!

Now you have to know up front when buying online I generally look at the three star and lower reviews, so I ordered this set with a lot of skepticism, just sure something was going to be FUBAR,...... Boy was I wrong!! I got the set and carefully un-packed it and was just amazed. It is PERFECT!! Seems that all the every flaw that had been complained about in the three star and less reviews had been addressed by the manufacturer!! So being eager to show it off and being a good ole boy, I invite my buddies over and we all set out on the porch {now that the weather is finally getting nice out} and play from noon until sunset. I enjoy all the compliments this beautiful the set gets, and everyone loves to play on it!!

I've shopped at ChessCentral three times now, and twice I've had questions about a particular product. I don't know much about chess software. Anyway, I was shocked to receive detailed answers later that same day! I mean, who does that? Shipping was fast and well packaged. All in all, a great chess website.
