The pawn on c6 guarantees Black a firm foothold in the centre but there is also the ever-present possibility to capture on c4 and possibly even try to hold on to this pawn. The Slav is ideal for combining reliability with a promise for dynamic counterplay in the middlegame.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Opening Repertoire: The Slav, highly experienced chess author and coach Cyrus Lakdawala guides the reader through the complexities of the Slav and carves out a repertoire for Black. He examines all aspects of this highly complex opening and provides the reader with well-researched, fresh, and innovative analysis. Each annotated game has valuable lessons on how to play the opening and contains instructive commentary on typical middlegame plans.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA complete repertoire for Black against 1 d4.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA question and answer approach provides an excellent study method.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cyrus Lakdawala\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1781945969\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781781945964\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Everyman Chess\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.70w x 0.80d\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Cyrus Lakdawala","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44056429887743,"sku":"9781781945964","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4aeac8f6-a91c-458e-b1a5-dea829ebd0d1.jpg?v=1685041265","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/opening-repertoire-the-slav-cyrus-lakdawala-9781781945964","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
