By
calmly fianchettoing his king's bishop in reply to the King's Indian and
Grünfeld, White seeks to draw the sting from these dynamic defences and
exert positional pressure throughout the middlegame. By refusing to create
a massive pawn-centre, he offers Black no target for counterplay. Some of
the lines become very sharp, especially if Black makes an all-out attempt
to generate counterplay and provokes White into hand-to-hand fighting.
These lines in particular call for accurate, detailed analysis, and
Janjgava provides this in abundance Lasha Janjgava is a grandmaster from Georgia, and President of the Tbilisi Chess Federation. He has represented his country four times in chess olympiads, and has built up a formidable reputation as a very hard player to beat. This is his third chess book for Gambit Euro 26,50
