Starting Out The Trompowsky: My New Course
Hi chess friends!
I just published my first course on Chessable, Starting Out The Trompowsky. This is an in-depth look at my favorite opening. I know that these variations work because this is my opening preparation, that I've played thousands of times on Chess.com and over the board. This course is designed to fight for the initiative at every turn with easy-to-learn variations.
For a brief preview, here's a blog I wrote about The Tromp-Wall, an incredibly fun attacking setup.
Here are some fun sample games from the course, demonstrating how White can attack in the Trompowsky. Here's a game of mine, using the lines from the course against former world title challenger, Nigel Short.
Here's another attacking line in the course. Here's a game with GM Quintiliano.
Here's another sharp line, giving great attacking chances. Check out this game against GM Florian Handke.
Please check out the course!
I'll be checking the messages here and am happy to answer any questions.
