"Rarely is an opening repertoire so thoughtfully put together ... an ideal starting point for a Black player looking for a reliable but slightly 'off the beaten track' opening" - Alec Toll, Open File This book equips the reader with everything he needs to know to play Black in a game of chess. Two experienced Finnish players have described an exciting repertoire based on the move 1...d6 in reply to whatever White’s first move happens to be. Black’s strategy is hypermodern and dynamic: White is encouraged to seize space, while Black develops his pieces rapidly and actively, waiting for the ideal moment to attack and destroy White’s central bastions. The variations advocated have been proven in top-level play and have quick-strike potential if White is at all careless or imprecise. The repertoire is based around the Pirc Defence and the variations 1 d4 d6 2 c4 e5 and 1 d4 d6 2 Nf3 Bg4, which fit seamlessly together with 1...d6 systems against White’s various flank openings. "Generally I found the book really helpful providing the right amount of detail without swamping me with lines. If like me you do not have a lot of time to study openings then this book provides you with a system which can be picked up reasonably easily without the need to learn long variations" - Gordon Botley, Weekend Chess Jouni Yrjölä is a grandmaster from Finland. He has won the Finnish Championship twice, and regards Sochi 1984, where he shared third place with the legendary Mikhail Tal, as his best tournament result. He was awarded his grandmaster title in 1990. Jussi Tella is also from Finland. He is an international master and an experienced chess trainer. "To my pleasant surprise the whole book focused solely on Black’s opening move 1...d6. Having dabbled with this a few times myself, I can assure you that the opening is a lot more dazzling than it sounds. The authors appear to have done an extremely diligent job, covering all possibilities for White and, with not far off 300 pages, you get a lot of chess for your money" - GM David Norwood, Weekend Telegraph "Verdict: another well-produced opening book from the GAMBIT stable, suitable for players who like to play for a win with Black and prefer their openings to be somewhat off the beaten track." - Phil Adams, Checkpoint "Players from 2000 on up will derive the most benefit from this book and this endorsement includes titled players" - IM John Donaldson, USA Team Captain

It has the sort of things I like in an opening book, i.e., a discussion of the strategical ideas for both sides and a conclusion about each variation. The authors have even included some statistics from their databases which includes number of games, scoring %, elo and performance elo for white for many of the chapters. I checked the results with my Big DataBase 2002 (over 2 million games) and found essentially the same numbers.The repertoire consists of playing 1...d6 after any white first move. The material is divided among 33 chapters covering various variations. Interestingly 1 d4 d6 2 c4 e5 is scoring 56% for Black! That got my attention. 1.d4 d6 2. Nf3 is met with Bg4, the Hodgson Variation, which appears to be scoring averagely for Black.Against 1 e4, the main line is the Pirc Defense. My guess is that you will also play a lot of Pircs from 1 d4 d6 2 e4 as well. Recognizing that many players won't want to play the Pirc, the authors offer a couple of alternatives. One is the Czech system 1 e4 d6 2 d4 Nf6 3 Nc3 c6 which does quite well unless White plays 4 f4, the current main line where white is scoring 59%. Finally, and more promising, is the so-called endgame variation 1 e4 d6 2. d4 Nf6 3 Nc3 (or f3) e5 4 dxe5 dxe5 5 Qxd8 Kxd8. This endgame is actually quite favorable for Black who wins a slight majority of the games. I should also point out that if the earlier mentioned 1 d4 d6 2 c4 e5 (which got my attention) is continued with 3 dxe5 dxe5 4 Qxd8+ Kxd8 then Black is scoring 67%! Of course White doesn't have to play 3 dxe5, but probably many players will because they erroneously think that forcing Black to forego castling is to their advantage.All other openings (except 1 f4) are met with 1...d6 2...e5 and 3...f5. These are not mainstream openings and there are not a large number of games in the databases however Black is doing quite well in the games I found.Apparently the authors did not participate in producing the title to this book. They describe the repertoire as "... Most of the lines are more positional than tactical in nature but they leave a lot of space for creativity and aggressive play by Black. Players who like sharp theoretical and concrete tactical battles where home preparation plays a key role should prefer systems like the Dragon, Najdorf or Grunfeld. For players who don't like endings, our repertoire is hardly optimal although the many endings discussed usually take a rather queenless middlegame nature."In summary this is a very competent handling of a complete opening repertoire. It is also a repertoire that scores very well (admittedly the Pirc scores only averagely but some alternate systems with ...d6 score better). If you are already a Pirc player, this repertoire seems ideal. If your overall winning strategy is to win in the endgame or you just want to improve or work on your endgame, this is a good repertoire, and a good book for you.
38 of 39 people found the following review helpful. Excellent. By mrbishope It has been a year since I wrote my initial review for this book and during this time I have continued to be impressed by the repertoire. Having grown accustomed to the lines stemming from 1.d4 d6 I find them now to be very effective - players of the white pieces seem to be totally unprepared for this system. However the major revelation for me has been the 'endgame system' against 1.e4, found in chapter 33 of the book. This system is presented as an alternative to the pirc for those seeking to avoid having to learn lots of pirc theory. I have found it very useful to use this system while learning the main lines against 1.d4, 1.c4 etc, as it is very easy to learn and solid. What this means is that you can quickly adopt this defence to 1.e4, then work through the rest of the book, then decide whether you wish to adopt the pirc or something else. Another really practical benefit of this repertoire is that it seems to cross so many typical white repertoires, and white players quickly lose their way. Take a look at an average white repertoire book and see how scanty the coverage of 1 ...d6 is. All the more reason to play d6 as black!******************For the average chessplayer choosing a dependable opening repertoire presents a difficult task. We know that in order to play the opening well we need a sensible set of variations - but which to choose? The main openings entail so much theory that it seems impossible to absorb them without devoting huge amounts of time to the task. Well in this book two masters propose an interesting and dynamic set of interlocked variations against any white opening that won't take years to learn. Of course this is nothing new - many repertoire books for the black pieces exist. However this one is different from most in that the systems given are very solid, sound and logical.This is not to say that they are to everyones taste. In fact, while I admire the way this book succeeds so well in its aims I don't feel entirely comfortable with the Pirc (the mainline against 1e4) and find the lines against 1d4 interesting but a little awkward somehow. However this is entirely subjective; given the thoroughness with which the authors treat their material I have no doubt that the lines are solid.So lets look at the book. Thick, attractively presented, nice layout. The material is VERY complete - these guys take writing a repertoire seriously. Tons of variations but also enough explanation to guide the reader. Besides no book can make a claim to completeness without being laden with variations. In a repertoire book the whole idea is that you never need purchase another opening book and this seems true here. There is a nice move index at the back.Other reviewers have commented on the actual moves against the various white openings so I won't bother listing those. Suffice to say that because 1.e4 is so popular (at least at amateur level) you had better like the Pirc.One noteworthy feature of the book is the inclusion of a couple of 'second string' systems along with the main repertoire. While the reader would probably be better off sticking to the main lines its nice to have the option and they make useful surprise weapons.I really can't fault this book. It is a shining example of how a repertoire book should be written. Its all here: a totally self contained and solid system against any white opening. You won't be able to learn it all in a short time. Work is required but that is true of any improvement in ones chess play. I think five stars for a quality book which delivers exactly what it promises and shows what an opening repertoire book should be like.
17 of 20 people found the following review helpful. Not a complete repertoire for black. By Chess amateur This book claims to give everything a reader needs to play a chess game as black, by simply playing 1..d6 against every first move by white."This book equips the reader with everything he or she needs to know to play Black in a game of chess. Two experienced Finnish players have described an exciting repertoire based on the move 1...d6 in reply to whatever White's first move happens to be.", Gambitbook says.There are a lot of positive things to say about this book, but it also has its drawbacks.First if you want to meet 1.d4 with 1..d6 this book is rather unique and detailed. Some variants are missing for instance 1.d4 d6 2.d5, but at all there is a lot of interesting and unknown stuff for the ambitious player.Second, the Pirc coverage in this book is quite good. Pirc is a rather complex opening, but the two authors have managed to give the reader a good and solid Pirc repertoire for black within only 50 pages.Third, the endgame discussion occurring after 1.e4 d6 2.d4 Nf6 3.Nc3 e5 4.dxe5 dxe6 5.Qxd8 Kxd8 and also 1.d4 d6 2.c4 e5 3.dxe5 dxe5 4.Qxd8 Kxd8 is very interesting and could be used by black as a drawing weapon against stronger opponents.The main drawback with this book is the coverage of the second move alternative after 1.e4 d6, which is incomplete and chaotic. There are no structured explanations of other second move alternative by white than 2.d4, heading for the Pirc or Philidor. . After 1.e4 d6, white has many other alternatives; he could play 2.f4 and try to go for a closed Sicilian, King's Gambit declined, etc, or he could play 2.c4!? hoping to play English and the Botvinnik setup or King's Indian. There are some information given when white plays 1.f4 d6 2.e4, but the variant/suggestion given and explanation is not very satisfactory.While the two authors offer 3 chapters dealing with second move alternatives after 1.d6 d6, they offer none after 1.e4 d6. So I suspect that this is a book written for the black side after 1.d4 d6, with the coverage of Pirc (or Philidor) if white plays e4 in the second move. So Gambitbooks should change the intention with this book.
