5/11/2024 – The knockout phase of the Chess.com Classic kicked off on Friday. Division I saw Magnus Carlsen, Jan-Krzysztof Duda, Vincent Keymer and Denis Lazavik advancing in the winners’ bracket. Lazavik got the better of Ian Nepomniachtchi — though Nepo is much higher rated than his young opponent, it is by this point not a big surprise that the 17-year-old beat a nominally stronger player. | Photo: chess.com

After 1.d4 d5 many players with White avoid the great amount of theory in the Slav, Semi-Slav, QGA and Orthodox Queen's Gambit and do not therefore play 2.c4. This is not very ambitious, but the painful experience of many chess players has been that the Colle System, the Trompowsky Attack, the Torre Attack and the London System are nevertheless extremely dangerous. Black has to be prepared for each of these openings and IM Valeri Lilov offers you some help with his six instructive videos, in which he demonstrates for each single opening a relevant plan for Black. In addition to the openings mentioned, the Bulgarian trainer also delves into the Catalan, the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit and the Richter-Veresov Opening.
