Luis Engel: Najdorf: A dynamic grandmaster repertoire against 1.e4 Vol. 1 & 2
Scarcely any other opening after 1. e4 enjoys such a good reputation and is so feared by White players. We are of course, talking about the Najdorf Variation of the Sicilian Defence! This two-part Fritztrainer offers you a complete repertoire against all possibilities that White has tried against the Najdorf on move 6 - after the initial moves 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 a6. The Najdorf Variation combines aggressive attacking chess with deep strategic plans, so there is something for every type of player! Ways to achieve a clear opening advantage have yet to be found for White players, so it’s no surprise that the Najdorf is considered one of the best and most played openings.
