World Chess Championship Opening:
Game 12- Italian Game

Italian Game  Special Bundle:

The Popular Italian Fritz Trainer 

When we are kids we are mostly taught to play 1.e4, and the first mate we see is the one with Bc4, Qh5 and Qxf7#. It looks like chess theory is turning back to its roots when the move 3.Bc4 was much more popular than 3.Bb5. 

Attack with the Modern Italian   Fritz Trainer

In recent years the Italian Game has undergone a renaissance, transforming it from the Cinderella of 1.e4 openings into a major system which offers excellent chances for White to gain the advantage. Accordingly it has found favor with some of the World's top players including Garry Kasparov, Vladimir Kramnik, Sergei Tiviakov, Viktor Bologan, Sergei Movsesian, Michael Adams and Boris Gelfand. 

Attacking with the Italian Game and the Ruy Lopez Fritz Trainer

The purpose of this DVD is to teach players how to conduct the attack on the Black King using different methods. Although the Italian Game and the Ruy Lopez are mostly positional openings, it is very often possible to make use of attacking methods of play. This DVD is based mostly on the personal experience and games of the author, thus making it a unique chess product. The methods described in the DVD are the results of the life-long experience of the author who has played the Ruy Lopez and the Italian Game from his childhood and has scored with it many, many wins, including some against the world's strongest players.

The Modern Italian Game (Video)

The ancient chess opening 1.e4 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 has been refined into the Modern Italian Game, and is a great weapon for the average club player. But this system also scores well for White at all levels - right up to Grandmaster. It's 100% sound, solid and durable, offering White the chance to develop a nagging edge throughout the game. This advantage can often turn into a vicious attack. After 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.c3 Nf6, it is the move 5.d3! which will make Black's heart sink. 

The Italian Game and 3.Bb5 Sicilian (Video)

On this important video Roman introduces new ideas in the Giuoco Piano, plus a new way to play with the 3.Bb5 Sicilian. Watch Roman and Rybka completely overturn a well established move in the Giuoco Piano, a variation over 100 years old and one never before questioned. In fact, we now have a new line in which White claims a sizable advantage.

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.
