King’s Indian 1, Paperback / softback Book

King’s Indian 1 Paperback / softback

Part of the Grandmaster Repertoire series

Paperback / softback

Description

The King’s Indian is the ideal response to 1.d4 to combine dynamic counterattacking play with complete theoretical soundness.

A past favourite of both Fischer and Kasparov, it continues to perform well at the highest levels of modern chess. King’s Indian 1 is the first of two books presenting a complete repertoire for Black.

GM Gawain Jones is the perfect guide, being both a world-class player and a longstanding expert on the King’s Indian.

This book version of Jones’s Chessable course has been extensively edited and reorganized by Quality Chess. Volume 1 takes the moves 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 Bg7 4.e4 d6 as the starting point, covering White’s main possibilities, such as the Mar del Plata, lines with an early h2-h3 and the Sämisch (5.f3). The repertoire will be completed in King’s Indian 2, including antidotes to White’s tricky tries after 1.d4 Nf6, as well as the King’s Indian versus the English Opening, Reti and everything else (except for 1.e4).
