The Reti Opening: Expert Knowledge (Download)

It is always fascinating when preparing for a game or checking an opening line, you meet games dated from the beginning of the last century or even from the 1800's. Working on the video, I realized that the development of the Knight to f3, followed by the attack on the center with 2.c4, was played by almost all great champions of the past. The most valuable investment into this opening was of course made by Richard Reti, who scored a couple of victories with it in the 1920s, but what would it look like without Capablanca’s games or Smyslov’s fine ideas? Nowadays the main protagonist of 1.Nf3 with White is Vladimir Kramnik, who has in my opinion the deepest strategical knowledge and understanding in chess. Especially the Reti is designed for those players who like strategy, maneuvers and plans - who like to avoid opening tons of theory, the jungle of forced lines. In this Reti chess opening video, I tried to deal with all possible Black reactions against 1.Nf3. Naturally, there is much theory left outside of it, but a solid repertoire for White is inside - enjoy!
