Tired of always having to keep up with all the latest developments? Take a break from the mountains of opening theory and play 1...b6! With the move, preparing a bishop fianchetto, Black immediately directs the game into relatively uncharted territory, one where White players are not able to sit back and rely on their \"opening book\" knowledge. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe real beauty of 1...b6 is that it can be played against virtually every single first move by White, so it is a perfect choice for Black players with neither the time nor inclination to memorize a multitude of different defences. Despite being relatively unexplored, 1...b6 has been the weapon of some dynamic and uncompromising world-class players, including Britain's first Grandmaster, the late Tony Miles. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this revolutionary book, Christian Bauer reveals for the first time the secrets of how to play 1...b6 with success. He takes an in-depth look at both the main lines and White's more offbeat tries, creating a comprehensive repertoire for the Black player and highlighting the tactical and positional ideas for both players. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026gt;Written by a 1...b6 expert\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;All of White's possibilities are covered\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Full explanation of the most important thematic ideas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christian Bauer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1857444108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781857444100\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Everyman Chess\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/27\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.54w x 0.63d","brand":"Christian Bauer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46110739300607,"sku":"9781857444100","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8c7db074-d2b3-4882-b98e-033719f8e8d2.jpg?v=1725469632","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/play-1b6-christian-bauer-9781857444100","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
