Grandmaster Gambits 1. e4 – Part 2 Aggressive Lines by Simon Williams

Tired Of Tricky Sidelines Sucking
The Fun Out Of Your Game?

After 1.e4, the second player can sidestep your preparation with an offbeat opening, and take the game into strange positions where they know every trick in the book. For the unprepared, that’s a disaster waiting to happen.

But with Grandmaster Simon Williams and International Master Richard Palliser as your opening coaches…

Running into sidelines becomes an excellent opportunity to flex your attacking skills and rack up points in style!

The duo has enabled players all over the world to pump up their openings and overall performance.

Their streamlined repertoires allow time-strapped enthusiasts to start every game strong…while their engine-powered novelties give competitive players the edge they need in tournaments.

This time, GM Williams and IM Palliser show you how to turn up the pressure against lesser known (and dodgy) counters to 1.e4. So you…

Come Out Of The Opening With
A Ready-Made Attack!

Grandmaster Gambits 1.e4 Part 2 builds on the overall strategy of part one:

Play attacking chess to maximize your winning chances!

Make no mistake.

The authors settle for the clear and objectively best solution if one exists. But when the position offers many choices, they head for exciting lines that “invest” a tiny amount of material (i.e. a pawn or two) in exchange for big-time dynamic returns…

From total domination of the center, pieces in “ready to strike” positions, to a raging initiative that lasts all game long!

Part one of the series took on the tried and tested big four.

In part two, GM Williams and IM Palliser put the spotlight on anti 1.e4 sidelines…and arm you with strategies that:

⚔️ Deny the Scandinavian of its usual targets in the center. So you can develop your kingside and castle almost on auto-pilot. With your most precious piece tucked away safely, you’re ready to rip apart the opposing king’s cover.

⚔️ Blast the Pirc and Modern to bits with Harry the h-pawn leading the charge. This direct and energetic plan wastes no time bringing your h1-rook into the game. If Black is “cooperative,” you could have a near-winning attack as early as move six!

⚔️ Tame the Black Lion and strip the second player of castling rights with 5.Qxd8+. After which, that black king on d8 will never be completely safe, while your pieces glide to their best squares with a gain of time.

⚔️ Drive Alekhine players nuts with Simon’s pet line 3.Qf3. This early queen sortie…combined with a disruptive pawn sacrifice on e6…turns Black’s airtight structure into Swiss cheese!

PLUS, you also get move-by-move blueprints for beating oddballs, like the Nimzowitsch Defense (1…Nc6), Owen’s Defense (1…b6), and St. George’s Defense (1…a6).

Grandmaster Gambits 1.e4 Part 2 has 460 trainable variations and 18 hours of video, which explores nearly every nook and cranny of the openings covered. The course is beefy, but…
