Lifetime Repertoires Plichta’s 1. d4 – Part 2 Queen’s Gambit Chessable

Whether that means conquering 2/3 of the board — invading holes in the enemy camp — or hacking their king!

Sample the most “strategic” variation in the repertoire,
according to Plichta — and check out the game-winning
queen sacrifice on chapter 25!

This repertoire came from the lab of FIDE Master Kamil Plichta, complementing his complete repertoire against 1.d4 Nf6, Lifetime Repertoires: Plichta’s 1. d4 – Part 1 Trompowsky.

Plichta is a peak-2401 chess speedster turned best-selling Chessable author. One who’s carved a reputation for dynamic play and explosive novelties.

When Plichta analyzes any opening — including the Queen’s Gambit — he starts from square one. Nothing but a database, his favorite chess engines, and decades of practical experience.

Plichta then spends 100s of hours… running every variation through the “Plichta Practicality Test.” He picks lines which score up to 60% or more in human-vs-human games.

Lines that surprise and lead opponents down a theoretical tightrope…

While you poke, prod, then pounce from a sound position.

After mapping out everything, Plichta consults other sources to find improvements. So the variations avoid becoming copycats, while…

Take a sneak peek into the course:

Against the Slav, opposite-side castling becomes your go-to strategy, while your bishops and pawns peel away the defenses.

Moments before the enemy king
is stripped of its cover

Against the Queen’s Gambit Accepted, your kingside springs to action in 4 quick-fire moves. Then your center pawns sacrifice themselves, and pave the way to the enemy VIP.

The black king is unable to move, while
Nxh7 and Nxf8 are coming — clearly a
Queen’s Gambit Accepted gone wrong!

Next, you remove Black’s best defender in the Queen’s Gambit Declined. So you can storm the enemy king’s castle through the f- and g-files.

After bullrushing the kingside with pawns,
your rooks and queen will finish the job

And to deal with dubious gambits, you simply grab the pawn and make them pay!

The lines inside run 16 moves deep on average. No corners cut. No stone left unturned. So you can play out Plichta’s aggressive strategies to their conclusion — with “1-0” written on your scoresheet.
